Lessons Learned
σ Leadership support must be active, not passiveσ If you do not have leadership support, then you are not selecting
the right projects or are not deliveringσ Focus on early successes and supportive departmentsσ Do not limit yourself to one deployment tacticσ Self sustainability goal of 2 years from program implementationσ Utilize existing structures to integrate your programσ Maintain flexibility in adoption styles and delivery methodsσ Select the tools that fit your organizationσ Don’t get lost in the details of mechanicsσ Training programs without direct ties to organizational goals and
objectives are resource drainers and resume buildersσ Learning styles varyσ Change Management is key to sustainability
• Are your results tied to key strategic drivers?• Do your employees understand how your LSS
program supports the Mission for your organization?• What deployment tactics are utilized as part of your
LSS program and supported via training?• What is currently working? What isn’t?• Is your program showing a return on investment?
