The solution might lie in the wisdom of a cross-functional team.
A cross-functional team is a group of people with different functional expertise working towards a common goal.
Complex problems often require diverse perspectives.
In the context of Kaizen, organizing a cross-functional team is a powerful approach to problem-solving.
Here's how you can harness its power:
1/ Assemble Your Dream Team
Include representatives from all relevant departments
Mix different seniority levels for balanced input
Appoint a strong facilitator as team leader
2/ Follow a Structured Approach
Define the problem and scope
Use Lean tools like A3 problem-solving and 5 Whys
Set clear goals and timelines
3/ Implement and Learn
Develop an action plan with assigned responsibilities
Regularly review progress and adjust as needed
Document lessons learnt for future reference
Celebrate successes and learn from failures
