About Hoshin Consulting

A compass representing the direction a business moves in when they engage with Hoshin Consulting

At Hoshin Consulting we hope to guide your business forward, empowering you and your team on your journey towards your goals. 

 

Through our management consultancy, and Lean Six Sigma training we seek to simplify and streamline processes, allowing for focused and high quality delivery.

 

Hoshin is Japanese for ‘compass’ or ‘direction’ – and that is what we want for your organisation: 

 

 

Direction, Simplified.

Our Values

We don't use complicated Japanese words or lots of acronyms.  We make things simple for you to understand.

Simplicity

Everything we do, we do for you.  We coach your teams so that they can drive improvement, and offer ongoing support for further development.

Empowerment

If we can help, we'll let you know.  If we can't, we'll signpost you to those that can.  We'll always keep you up to date with how things are progressing.

Honesty
