You're looking to improve your Six Sigma problem-solving. What Lean Manufacturing tools should you use?
The choice of tools is dependent on the project and its complexity. Root cause analysis is one thing, but business process reengineering is a whole different story. I have written an article on which Lean Manufacturing tools to use based on the complexity of the project. I hope this is helpful: https://www.group50.com/making-continuous-improvement-a-reality/

How can you identify the best candidates for promotion within your team?
In this summary, I would like to focus on people in the organization who demonstrate that ability to become part of senior leadership. Leadership isn't about power, it is about influence, capability and guiding organizations through complex issues. During my career, I have put people who I believe could lead the company in the future into cross function positions with little authority and high visibility. Think product management, continuous improvement, leading strategic initiatives. If they can effectively lead complex cross functional projects, then they are on my radar.

How can Executive Management professionals stay competitive in their field?
In my experience, setting a Most Important Goal for the company and asking all stakeholders (Executive team, managers, employees, temp employees, contract employees, vendors and the board of directors) to identify ways they can contribute to achieving that goal will provide focus throughout the business. I have always been amazed at what people and teams can accomplish whey they have a focus and begin understanding their contribution to and ultimate goal. I write extensively about this concept in my book: Strategy Realized - The Business Hierarchy of Needs.
