Time: 1:00:01

Play

In this episode, Keith Norris is joined by Randy Kesterson, executive coach, transformation leader, and author of The Basics of Hoshin Kanri, to explore how companies can finally make their strategy stick—by linking it to execution, culture, and change management that works.

🔻 Why most strategic plans fail (and how to focus on what really matters)

🔻 The power of Hoshin Kanri to align teams and cut through initiative overload

🔻 What leaders miss when they treat Lean as a tool—not a business enabler

🔻 How to overcome resistance to change with ADKAR and real buy-in

🔻 Why cultural change needs structure, not slogans

🔻 How to deploy strategy across teams without another binder on the shelf

Randy shares lessons from decades leading operations across aerospace, defense, and manufacturing—plus how change management and Hoshin Kanri helped him bridge the gap between strategy and execution in both corporate and consulting roles.
