The book showed to be a great source of inspiration to owners and top management and we now truly believe we are on our way to implement a strategic planning process that is custom made for us.

The social services is in an endless competition for labor. To attract younger employees to our organization, we must offer a working environment where we value employees' ideas and engagement. For us, Hoshin Kanri has been a method to accomplish this. Following the HK principles and practical guidance in this book we have developed our own management system. A system that we are very proud of and will continuously develop.



--Stefan Österström, Head of Administration, Social services Jönköping municipality (The Social services employ 5,000 individuals and serve approximately 14,000 citizens)



This book is supportive as well as inspiring and it serves to strengthen our strategy process at Scania -- with focus on synchronization and catch-ball. It is excellent because it combines the theory of Hoshin Kanri with real case studies.



-- Åsa Dubois, Business Development Manager at Scania Corporate Management & Venture Business (Scania is a global truck manufacturer with 50,000 employees in 100 countries)



This book is important for C-level officers who want their organizations running at full capability. It illustrates how organizations can operate in accordance with the vision and the strategy. The book gives many insights including the fact that both Lean and non-Lean companies can be in the same starting point with Hoshin Kanri."



-- Juha Tammi, General Manager, Lean Association of Finland



Real and sustainable end of pipe results can only be achieved if all layers of the organization are aligned and focused on common goals in terms of safety, quality, delivery, and costs. Constant communication and alignment when moving towards these goals and targets is essential for everybody in the organization. David, Fredrik, Malin, Anders, and Fredrik present this in a very clear and practical way. This book is an absolute must for leaders who want to bring their organization to the next level in a clear and systematic way.
