Vilmorin-Mikado: lean principles applied to management

In this episode, Claudio Vandi welcomes Anne-Gaëlle Sterlin, Head of Performance and Operational Excellence at Vilmorin-Mikado, to explore what Lean culture can really offer managers... well beyond the industrial sector.

Anne-Gaëlle has been immersed in Lean culture since her very first professional experiences, and has applied it to each of her managerial roles ever since. Managerial approach, team empowerment, psychological safety, and co-construction of solutions... Anne-Gaëlle explains everything that Lean culture can bring to the table.

She shares three specific strategies that she loves:

Leader = Teacher: managing through questioning rather than commanding.
Go out into the field: observe the reality of the work to make better decisions, rather than managing from a distance.
“Problems are gold”: create an environment where difficulties can be expressed without fear, in order to progress collectively.

Enjoy!
