Esta dissertação propõe um modelo de implantação da estratégia através do método Hoshin Kanri, combinado ao gerenciamento de projetos, para organizar os processos do desdobramento das diretrizes e iniciativas, aumentando, desta forma, o sucesso na execução da estratégia empresarial. Elaborar a estratégia é um passo importante, contudo não basta ter um bom plano, é preciso executá-lo com sucesso, desenvolvendo as iniciativas certas, dentro do prazo e no custo necessário para atingir os objetivos estratégicos. Neste contexto, as empresas que detém uma metodologia consistente, para definição do plano de projeto de iniciativas estratégicas, podem minimizar os riscos de não alcançarem seus objetivos. Desta forma, é apresentada uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o método Hoshin Kanri e o gerenciamento de projetos. Também é proposto um modelo composto de cinco passos, utilizando elementos de cada método e aplicado com sucesso em uma agroindústria, evidenciando que é possível implementar a estratégia por meio do uso combinado do Hoshin Kanri e do Gerenciamento de Projetos. / This dissertation aims to propose a model for the management of strategy implementation through the Hoshin Kanri method, combined with project management, to organize the processes of policy deployment and initiatives, increasing thus the successful execution of business strategy. Develop a strategy is an important step, but not enough to have a good plan, you need to run it successfully, developing the right incentives, on time and cost necessary to achieve the strategic objectives. In this context, companies that hold a consistent methodology for defining the project plan of strategic initiatives can minimize the risk of not achieving their goals. Thus, we present a literature review on the Hoshin Kanri method and projects management. Also proposed is a model consists of five steps, using elements of each method and successfully applied in an agro-industry, showing that it is possible to implement the strategy through the combined use of Hoshin Kanri and Project Management.

Small business owners in Nigeria submit financial reports to regulators and stakeholders, and they often lack strategies to ensure timeliness in the Nigeria report rendition. Lack of accounting competence and audit lag in the preparation, rendition, and submission of financial statements and reports are some of the contributors to this lack of timeliness. The purpose of this multiple case study was to explore strategies that owners of small businesses used to ensure timeliness of financial reporting. The population for this study was 5 owners of small businesses in Nigeria. Management by objectives and Hoshin Kanri were the conceptual framework for this study. Data were collected using semistructured interviews and a review of company documents. The thematic analysis led to the emergence of the following themes: (a) hiring the right employees, (b) regular training of accountants, (c) working with external accountants, (d) effective leadership and organizational structure, (e) attending accounting courses or workshops, and (f) using or abiding by formal financial reporting standards. Local small business owners may apply these results to hiring professional accountants to prepare timely financial reports to meet stakeholders' needs. Timely preparation of financial reports by owners of small businesses may contribute to positive social change by providing appropriate feedback to regulators, tax administrators, and small business owners, and encouraging and supporting local economic growth.

To implement effective quality management at an industrial enterprise, it is necessary to develop methodological support for the formation of business processes within the framework of the quality management system and the implementation of the developed methodology in the enterprise. The basis of this methodological support can be the concept of TQM. In the course of the master's thesis elements of methodological support of the management system at an industrial enterprise based on the concept of TQM based on the concept of using the following tools were proposed: formalization of strategic analysis and planning using the Hoshin-Kanri concept, description of business processes, standardization of work on processes, formation of a KPI system -producing and KPI-process, the formation of operational management system based on KPI monitoring, analysis of the causes of deviations based on and TOOLS FOR "Ishikawa diagram" and Shewhart control charts, which improves the efficiency of the implementation of quality management systems in the enterprise and their effectiveness, as well as to implement a systematic approach in the management of the production process deviations. / Для осуществления эффективного менеджмента качества на промышленном предприятии необходима разработка методического обеспечения формирования бизнес-процессов в рамках системы управления качеством и внедрения разработанной методики на предприятии. Основой такого методического обеспечения может стать концепция TQM. В ходе магистерской диссертации предложены элементы методического обеспечения системы управления на промышленном предприятии основанной на концепции TQM, основанной на концепции применении следующих инструментов: формализация стратегического анализа и планирования с помощью концепции Хосин-Канри, описание бизнес-процессов, стандартизация работ по процессам, формирование системы KPI-результирующих и KPI-процессных, формирование системы оперативного управления на базе мониторинга KPI, анализа причин возникновения отклонений на основе инструментов “Диаграмма Исикавы” и контрольных карт Шухарта, что позволяет повысить эффективность внедрения систем управления качеством на предприятии и их результативность, а также внедрить системный подход в управлении отклонениями производственного процесса.

It is of vital importance never to forget that the world is ever changing. Therefore, it is crucialfor organizations not to only alter but also to improve their performance in order to becomemore competitive on the market. One way of achieving this is to work with continuousimprovements. However, this requires that the employees receive the needed training for thispurpose. In multinational corporations they must also all receive the same training in order tocreate a common culture throughout the whole organization. This study therefore aims toinvestigate how a multinational corporation can organize an Improvement ManagementTraining. Which are the main areas that are desirable to have knowledge in when leading animprovement work? In order to identify the areas of interest, a case study has been performedat Ericsson Supply Site Borås. The investigation was conducted as a combination of aqualitative and a semiquantitative study in order to determinate the empirical data. The resultsrevealed that the following five major areas are essential for an Improvement ManagementTraining: Leadership, Lean¸ Organizational Behavior, Project Management and StrategicManagement. / Program: Bachelor of Science with a Major in Industrial Engineering – Work Organization and Leadership
