Unleash Your Team's Potential: Secrets of Lean Leadership from 5L Performance Group

October 20, 2024 • Anne Bonney • Season 14 • Episode 306

I am thrilled to be the closing keynote speaker at the upcoming Iowa Lean Consortium 2024 Fall Conference (https://www.ciras.iastate.edu/iowalean/ilc-learning-opportunities/ilc-2024-annual-conference/) where I will be sharing the stage with Rick Faber and Jesse DePriest, co-founders of the 5L Performance Group (https://5lperformancegroup.com/).

In this episode, we dive deep into their methodology and very clear and simple leadership framework for maximizing the human potential and laying a foundation for the implementation of successful Lean practice.

We talk about

Foundational Leadership: Rick Faber and Jesse DePriest emphasize the importance of building a strong leadership foundation of "love, listen, learn, lead" before implementing lean practices.
Commitment over Compliance: The 5L approach focuses on inspiring commitment from teams rather than just compliance, using influence through authentic care and concern.
Elevate Assessment: 5L has developed the "Elevate" assessment tool to help organizations objectively diagnose gaps in their management systems and prioritize areas for improvement.
Flexible Framework: The 5L framework is designed to be adaptable across industries, allowing businesses to customize the approach to their unique needs.
Long-Term Partnerships: 5L is excited to build lasting relationships with clients, helping them realize their goals and make a greater impact through effective leadership and lean practices.
