    Guest Post: Organizations are Solving Problems; Are They Workarounds or Real Improvements?

    Mark' Graban's note: Today's post is a guest post by my friend and colleague Isaac Mitchell. We've crossed paths at conferences, including the annual Society for Health Systems conference, where he shared some of their great work on Kaizen that's being done at East Tennessee Children's Hospital. Hopefully we'll see you there in February with keynote speaker Kim Barnas (hear my podcast with her) and others.

    The New England Lean Podcast

    Teamwork, 3P and Cardboard City with Isaac Mitchell‬

     

    Join Paul W. Critchley, owner of New England Lean Consulting, as he talks with local business owners, global thought leaders, world-renowned authors and just plain interesting people who are doing great things for business, culture and society! Guests share the thoughts and practices that they've used to bring their organizations to ever-greater levels of success. More than just hitting business metrics, true success must include culture, psychological safety and emotional intelligence.

     
    In this episode, we talk about the importance of including everyone when enacting and implementing change and ensuring that everyone feels heard. We also talk about 3P as a Lean tool, and how underrated it is. Finally, we talk about Isaac's latest role and how the technology his company uses in their product is furthering the adoption of Lean into healthcare.

    Healthcare Systems Process Improvement Conference

    An engineer, an architect, and a nurse walk into a bar, I mean a hospital...

     

    In episode #355 of Mark Graban's podcast, He's sharing three short conversations with three people who have very different backgrounds, but they still all ended up working to improve healthcare.

    We have a Toyota-trained engineer (Isaac Mitchell), who transitioned (like me) from manufacturing to healthcare.


    We are also joined by an architect (Laura Silvoy) who got a master's degree in health systems engineering and helps an architecture firm in the improvement and design of healthcare facilities.

    And, we have a business student (Darrin Judkins) who then got a nursing degree and, after years of providing patient care at the bedside, also got into Lean and healthcare improvement.


    We all know each other through our involvement in the Society for Health Systems (a part of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers) and the annual Healthcare Systems Process Improvement Conference. The event is being held February 26 to 28 this year in Savannah, Georgia. I love this event — the learning, the networking, the friends… and I highly recommend it. We'll chat about that a bit too.

    This episode is a little different… but I think you'll like it.
