This presentation will explore the key traits necessary for front line supervisors to build successful lean efforts and share the results of in-depth interviews with front-line supervisors from seven commonwealth agencies. Participants will discover the several leadership behaviors that front line supervisors need to exhibit to engage their direct reports in a successful Lean transformation and will takeaway practices that can be implemented right away.
