The Lean Healthcare Initiative team presents the results of its research and provides five guidelines for successfully transforming healthcare organizations.

Participants: Flávio Battaglia, Lean Institute Brasil; Vyacheslav Boltrukevich, Lean Institute Russia; Oriol Cuatrecasas and Cristina Fontcuberta Adalid, Instituto Lean Management, Barcelona; Alice Lee, Lean Enterprise Institute, Boston; Dr Carlos Frederico Pinto, Instituto de Oncologia do Vale, Brazil.

Over the last five years, the Lean Global Network’s Lean Healthcare Initiative has conducted extensive research in eight hospitals in five countries. They mapped these lean transformations using a common framework – the Lean Transformation Framework – and gathered a set of guiding principles that can help healthcare organizations around the world reduce the time they need to achieve a successful turnaround.
