DATA: See it. Understand it. Discuss it.

Customer Orders SummaryWe’ve all heard author and management consultant Peter Drucker’s famous quote “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.”  

What’s the right way to manage “It” though? Is it enough to put the data in the hands of the responsible manager and wait for change to occur? Does the manager have a pulse on everything that went into those numbers?

Your numbers tell a story, but there is a lot of “how” and “why” that creates a backstory that affects the interpretation and the actions needed to improve. Does your manager have the backstory? Probably not, so you share the numbers and invite employees to participate in the discussion, only to discover that the 3rd shift was short-staffed for over a week, or a material shortage caused a delay in order fulfillment, or quality issues resulted in a large amount of rework, thereby delaying other production runs. How do you get ALL of this information without the need to discuss it with each person doing the work?
