Project 7 Leadership

Leadership Excellence is at the centre of Project 7's methodology. The development of competence in technical, political and symbolic leadership within a client organization is achieved through a unique combination of experimentation, coaching, excellence-modeling and psychology.

Our 7 Leadership Excellence principles form the basis of our coaching techniques and ensure that process change can be sustained after we exit your business.

By analysing the current state of your Leadership Attributes and comparing them against the 7 Habits of Leadership Excellence, we can provide an insight into how you can apply the principle of performance management through the application of systematic consequence to achieve the following objectives:

  • Explore the key characteristics of Excellent Lean Leaders.
  • Define Value Adding Leadership.
  • Unravel Culture and how it is formed.
  • Introduce Behavioural Science and Management of Consequences.
  • Explain how to deploy these systems in the format of Sensei Coaching through Focused Improvement Experiments.

 

It is well documented that The DNA of Leadership at Toyota contains the following important elements:

  • Conducting real time GO, LOOK, SEE in the work environment to uncover problems.
  • Using small experiments [Kaizen PDCA] to create performance change.
  • Leaders experimenting as often as possible with their teams
  • Leaders who do not offer solutions but coach their teams in the method of finding answers for themselves.

  • 1. Communicate the Long Term Vision
  • 2. Demonstrate Policy Deployment
  • 3. Develop a Continual Improvement Structure
  • 4. Lead By Example
