Hoshin Kanri

Hoshin Kanri means managing the business according to visions and goals with the involvement of all teams in managing processes.Top management creates a strategic plan that is considered piecemeal, not as a whole.He passes it on to middle management, so it is a cascade effect or vertical diffusion. The inclusion and participation of all components of the teams is an important factor. Progress must be consistently assessed and any change must be for the better.

  • Where do we want to be in the future?
  • How do we want to achieve this?
  • When do we want to achieve the goals?
  • Who will be involved in achieving the goals?
