PICK BATTLES BIG ENOUGH TO MATTER SMALL ENOUGH WIN JONATHAN KOZOL
Our Challenge Our challenge is to build a “lean process” framework that sustains excellent performance for the Arts organizations. ---It does not exist. “Some people think lean means “not fat” as to laying people off”– David Upton, Albert J. Weatherhead III Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. “But there are other processes that can be analyzed through lean such communications, supply chain, cycle time to deliver service to customer. That need to be addressed in the Arts…” – A. Jackson Julia Hanna, “Bringing “lean” Principles to Service Industries”, Harvard Business School, October 22, 2007. “Nonprofit organizations should consider creating wealth rather than merely redistributing it..” Bill Shore in “Doing good by doing well” (www.mckinseyquarterly.com/article_print.aspx?L2=33&L3+O&ar=1045)
Introduction Objective Two Questions Where do we go from here? Critical next steps for nonprofit management that lead to improved performance and attract funders? (Dr. Allison Jackson) How to maintain our mission and key staff while cutting programs ? (Tonia Papke) Attendees can expect to leave this session armed with information about lean six sigma processes that improve nonprofit organization performance and attract funders. Who is using lean six sigma in their organization today?
Today’s Agenda Lean Six Sigma Overview - Allison Financial / Management Examples - Tonia Examples of techniques in Management Planning Control Operations Analysis Conclusion • What is Lean Six Sigma? • Big Picture of Lean Six Sigma: The Challenge for the Arts • Deploying Lean Six Sigma in the Arts • Examples • Summary
Lean Thinking Philosophy Expose Problems “True North” Value Added Time = Lead Time Current State Future State Solve Problems Full of Waste, Variation, and Constraints Identify and eliminate all activities that are waste (Muda). Focuses on optimal flow throughout the process. Customer focused.
Types of Systems Improvement • Total Quality Management • Total Productive Maintenance • Quick Replenishment • Re-engineering And did we mention… • Systems Improvement • Kaizen • Lean Thinking • Flow • Continuous Improvement • Just In Time • Theory of Constraints • Quality Circles • Six Sigma Many of the Teachings Are The Same
Why Use Lean Six Sigma Tools? What Big Do We Expect?: • All Systems Improvement teachings emphasize ways of thinking – not just sets of practices • Every employee is hired to use their mind – not just their body • Ultimate objective of all continuous improvement is Human development • The real power is when everyone is applying “lean thinking” to their work every day • When everyone is giving birth to miraculous new ideas every day • The biggest change of all – EMPLOYEE EMPOWERMENT

What is Lean Six Sigma? Lean Six Sigma is a business improvement methodology which combines the tools from Lean manufacturing processes and Six Sigma. Lean focuses on speed and lower waste; Six Sigma focuses on measuring quality. The result is better quality faster –it can be applied to any organization.
How is Six Sigma Implemented? According to iSixSigma Magazine Survey of 1500 global six sigma managers (2006) responded to the question as follows: • 46% - Enterprise wide • 23% - One or more business units • 11% - Small-scale pilot • 20% - Six Sigma trained resources but no formal Six Sigma program
Which Deployment Model to Use? Impact • Business Transformation • Organization wide deployment • Major culture change • Strategic improvement • Targeted deployment on critical problems • Projects necessary for success or survival • Problem solving • Specific operational problems • Incremental improvements in organizational performance Scale • Entire organization • Department • Project/Section/Team Organization Readiness • Culture • Past process experience • Management team • Stability Select Model Based on Goals of the Organization

Step 1: DEFINE • Goal • Define the project’s purpose and scope and get background on the process and customer • Output • A clear statement of the intended improvement and how it is to be measured • A high level map of the process • A list of what isimportant to thecustomer Project Charter VOC SIPOC IMPROVE
Step 2: MEASURE • Goal • Focus the improvement effort by gathering information on the current situation • Output • Baseline data on current process performance • Data that pinpoints problem location or occurrence • A more focused problem statement Determine Measures based on CTQs IMPROVE Measure As-Is Patterns
Step 3: ANALYZE • Goal • Identify root causes and confirm them with data • Output • A theory that has been tested and confirmed IMPROVE Process Analysis Analyze waste andvariation Identify root causes Data Analysis
Step 4: IMPROVE • Goal • Develop, try out, and implement solutions that address root causes • Output • Planned, tested actions that should eliminate or reduce the impact of the identified root causes Solutions IMPROVE FMEA Pilot - Implement tation
Step 5: CONTROL • Goal • Use data to evaluate both the solutions and the plans • Validate that all changes adhere to all operating company change control, and compliance requirements • Maintain the gains by standardizing processes • Outline next steps for on-going improvement including opportunities for replication • Output • Before and After analysis • Monitoring system • Completed documentation of results, learning's, and recommendations Standardize Control Document Monitor Evaluate Closure IMPROVE

World Class Benchmarks How Do You Know You Did Well? Over 10% of total process time is value-adding activities – compared to 5% for most companies Continuous improvement culture • Quality Improvement – 50% per year (helped by new product or service introductions) • Productivity improvement – 2% per month • Total employee involvement, with sharing of authority, accountability and reward.

Case Studies--Fundraising Event • Situation • After a death of a loved one, a client wanted to develop a golf tournament fundraiser as a way to thank the non-profit organization t • hat provided supportive care to her family. A small budget was earmarked for the golf tournament. The success of the event would • depend on support from the business community, family and friends. • What We Did • Prepared comprehensive promotion plan and timetable for golf tournament • Set dollar goals for tournament • Prepared budget • Developed target list of corporate contributors • Designed logo and promotional materials • Solicited in kind donations and corporate sponsorship • Solicited media coverage • Developed roles and responsibilities for volunteers • Coordinated logistics for a golf tournament • Secured donations for silent and Chinese auction • Produced signage for event • Worked with Country Club • Managed on site coordination of the event • The Results • Received overwhelming support from the business community, family and friends • Surpassed the fundraising goal • Provided funding for non-profit organization • Family pleased with the legacy established
Summary • Lean Six Sigma is a business improvement process directed at empowering employees to work to eliminate waste and deliver quality (better quality faster) • Lean Six Sigma is not about tools and techniques, rather about motivating a culture of change focused on customer satisfaction • The Handouts provided for this presentation offer access to books, online slide shows, 126 articles on lean six sigma, and consultant services • We need to collaborate and create a framework for Lean Six Sigma in the Arts until we create one.
