by Karen Martin and Mike Ostersling, 2013 – How to Visualize Work and Align Leadership for Organizational Transformation
–
“Without doubt, the essential book and guidance for anyone wishing to discover or improve their value stream mapping practices.”
–
What I Liked The Most
- Value Stream Mapping is a way to define a strategic direction by a leadership team.
- Practical guidance and templates to prepare, develop and execute a value stream transformation.
The two courses on « Value Stream Transformation » by TKMG Academy are a great complement to the book. - Clear explanations on the visual representation and key metrics.
–
What Important Lessons I Learned
- “If you can’t describe what you’re doing as a value stream, you don’t know what you’re doing”
- Take time to set the stage with a charter to enable the success of the mapping activity.
- Need of a value stream manager/owner responsible of the entire value stream performance.
