3 Enterprise Challenge Adapting to ever-changing external environments Managing increasing technological complexity Coordinating across multiple stakeholders and interfaces Working through collaborative networked enterprises MOVING FROM THE PAST (vertically integrated) organizations TOWARDS THE FUTURE (networked) enterprises Strategy Alignment & Deployment Strategic Change Implementation Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08 -

4 Understanding Lean + Enterprise + Change What data and experience do we draw upon? Research on Lean Research on Enterprise Books/documented studies Toyota and lean i.e. The Machine that Changed the World, The Toyota Way, Remade in America, Collaborative Advantage Management/leadership i.e. Built to Last, Good to Great, Execution, The Leadership Engine Corporate/leadership i.e. Jack, Who Says Elephants Can't Dance? Strategy/Change i.e. The Innovating Organization, Leading Change, Breaking the Code of Change, The Dance of Change Case studies that identify concepts successful lean change Enterprise deployment projects that develop and test concepts Research on Change lean+change change+enterprise lean+ enterprise+change Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08 -

7 Limitations of Planned Organizational Change Multi-organization Focus is on single enterprise form: organizations: New organizational forms Our critical correlate challenges with high are not performance within domains of single organizations Single organizations are: Enterprises are: Hierarchical Poly-centric Highly organized Multiple Tightly relationships coupled Loosely coupled CEO Executive Board Functions CEO Research and Sales and Manufacturing Materials Finance Marketing Management Teams Sales Engineering Manufacturing Purchasing Research and Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08 -

8 Challenges of Enterprise Change CEO Executive Board CEO Functions Research and Sales and Manufacturing Materials Finance Marketing Management Teams Sales Engineering Manufacturing Purchasing Research and Organizations are: Hierarchical Highly organized Tightly coupled Enterprises are: There are different assumptions about change and context Poly-centric Multiple relationships Loosely coupled We can not assume that we can bootstrap past knowledge We need a change theory developed in an enterprise context Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08-8

9 A approach to Enterprise Change requires Identification recognition of the system and network you can not engage and improve what you do not identify Directiveness Providing direction, order, and alignment you can not organize a mess Crossing boundaries work across units and organizations Demonstrate gains to inspire action in others Set and manage boundaries through standards and plans Power and politics within organizations are learnings enemies Developing performance within and then across A potential worse-before-better dynamic requires Intergenerational and strong distributed leadership to sustain Note: These enterprise change propositions are contrary to current organizational change practices of relaxing central control, encouraging countless initiatives, and focusing internally Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08-9

10 Capabilities for Enterprise Lean Change Capabilities are: resources, talents, and abilities of an organization and its people that have the potential for development and use, and in their use, create expected outcomes while further developing themselves Distributing leadership Seeking growth Rethinking boundaries The system of change ~ leads to a ~ lean enterprise system Installing innovation sets Pulling & pushing change Massachusetts Institute of Technology George Roth 0//08-0
