Added: (Mon Apr 30 2007)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
If you work in Finance, Manufacturing or for the Government you will be aware Toyota�s business model has been misinterpreted in them all!
Free packages to download from www.concreteheads.co.uk raise the bar for all �Lean-sigma� consultants and managers focused on making change in business.
Concrete Heads Ltd, have produced the BTFA model to provide Lean-sigma consultants and managers an essential concept they claim has been missing from change initiatives in business for the last 30yrs.
Concrete Heads Ltd. claim all �Lean-sigma tools and techniques� currently popular with many city based banks, insurance firms and government departments, as well as throughout industry, have followed a �left-brain� only approach and this simply isn�t working.
�The focus is in the wrong place and subsequently there is no balance!� says Concrete Heads Director David Bovis.
�Focusing on the data, takes your eye off the ball in relation to the people and essentially it�s the people that have to change to make improvements sustainable � you can talk all day long about policy, process and procedure, but if you don�t understand your people, you�re going no-where fast�.
Emotions are a right brain issue and don�t show up directly on the bottom line, so they are ignored. Change in anyone�s environment provokes emotion; this is typically ignored as Data has become the �en-vogue� language of modern management, leaving little room for emotional intelligence or common sense in the world of business improvement. Achieving a balance here is essential.
A package explaining the BTFA cycle and how it links to Demmings PDCA cycle is available to download Free, from the Concrete Heads Website entitled,
CHANGE � Taking it from page to stage.
