| Abstract |
PurposeThis paper aims to explore how leaders can develop value-based leadership for sustainable quality development in Lean manufacturing.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative meta-analysis was conducted using data from a three-year study of Lean manufacturing in Sweden using the Shingo business excellence model as an analytical framework.FindingsThis study demonstrates that leaders can develop value-based leadership to support Lean manufacturing by defining and articulating the organization's values and accompanying behaviors that are needed to support the strategic direction; creating forums and time for leaders to identify the why behind decisions and reflect on their experiences to be able to lead a transformative process; and using storytelling to create a coaching culture to connect values and behaviors, to the processes and systems of work.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper contributes insights for developing value-based leadership to support a systemic approach to sustainable quality development in lean manufacturing. Findings are based on a limited case sample size of three manufacturing companies in Sweden.Originality/valueThe findings were derived using a unique methodological approach combining storytelling, appreciative inquiry and coaching with traditional data collection methods including surveys and interviews to identify, define and shape value-based leadership in Lean manufacturing. |
