Over Lean in Government Podcast

This podcast is dedicated to helping government employees and leaders learn and apply Lean philosophy and continuous improvement to make their organizations more efficient, transparent, and customer-focused.While Lean has been widely adopted in industries like manufacturing and healthcare, it remains underutilized in the public sector. My goal is to change that — one video, one process, and one improvement at a time.Whether you’re new to Lean or already practicing continuous improvement, this channel will help you bring Lean thinking to your agency, department, or community.

Lean in Government | Episode 10 | KPIs & LSW

In Episode 10 of the Lean in Government podcast, I talk about two critical elements that every organization needs, but very few truly use effectively: KPIs and Leader Standard Work. Too often in government, we measure activity instead of impact. We track what is easy instead of what truly matters to our citizens. In this episode, I share real examples from my experience in government on how to create meaningful KPIs that actually drive improvement, not just reporting. I also explain how Leader Standard Work brings discipline and consistency to leadership, helping you stay engaged, support your team, and turn data into real results. This episode will challenge you to rethink how you measure performance and how you lead on a daily basis. Key takeaways: 1. How to create KPIs that reflect process health, not just numbers 2. Why you should eliminate KPIs once performance is stable 3. How Leader Standard Work drives consistency and accountability 4. Real examples from government operations and supply chain If you are a leader in government, this episode is for you. 🎧 Listen, reflect, and start focusing on what truly matters.

He shares insights from his experience in transforming inventory practices in government environments, highlighting how structured conversations and regular reviews can lead to sustainable improvements. The episode concludes with a call to action for leaders to engage actively in inventory management to foster a culture of continuous improvement.

Lean in Government | Episode 8 | How Standards & Systems Sustained Warehouse Success (Part 2)

For years, I watched organizations invest in software, systems, and tools, yet warehouses stayed disorganized and inefficient. The problem wasn’t technology. It was the lack of standards. In Episode 8 of Lean in Government, Part 2 of our warehouse transformation series, I share what happened after the initial improvements and what it took to sustain them. We talk about the power of naming conventions, why speaking the same “inventory language” matters, and how tools like Cityworks only start working once Lean standards, visual management, and daily discipline are in place. This episode focuses on moving from firefighting to predictability, from tribal knowledge to shared understanding, and from manual chaos to reliable, electronic inventory management. If you manage warehouse, supply chain, fleet, or inventory operations, especially in government, this episode will resonate. 🎧 Available on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify. #LeanInGovernment [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/leaningovernment] #LeanLeadership [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/leanleadership] #WarehouseTransformation [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/warehousetransformation] #InventoryManagement [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/inventorymanagement] #Cityworks [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/cityworks] #VisualManagement [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/visualmanagement] #ContinuousImprovement [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/continuousimprovement] #PublicSector [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/publicsector]
