Daily Management to Execute Strategy: a Conversation with José Ferro


Listen Later

In this episode of the WLEI Podcast, we sit down with Jose Ferro, the founder of the Lean Institute Brasil and co-author of LEI's new book Daily Management to Execute Strategy: Solving problems and developing people every day. José shares his insights on how companies can effectively connect their high-level strategy to frontline operations and the importance of developing a problem-solving culture. 

Some key takeaways from the conversation include:

Daily management is a structured process to align an organization's strategy with its day-to-day work.

  • Solving problems at the operational level is fundamental to an effective daily management system and developing people.

  • Leader behavior can enable effective problem-solving and destroy effective problem-solving.

  • A clearly defined help chain connects frontline daily management to managerial-level daily management and provides systematic support to frontline operations.

  • The approach to implementing daily management should be tailored to each organization's specific needs and context.
