At Delta Stratagem, business transformation is all about rapid cultural change. Our mission is to help people understand their current state and change how they see, think and feel about themselves and their work.

We create business cultures in which people can connect with a common purpose and interact with good intentions, listening and mutual respect. Once we lay that foundation, work becomes more satisfying and more fun. Individual pride and imagination flourish and contribute to a shared vision.

Time after time, we've seen how our approach to business transformation leads to higher business performance. By changing people, we transform companies.

If you want to take your business to ever-higher performance levels, Delta Stratagem can take you there. Our multi-vector approach to business transformation inspires people to act collaboratively across traditional boundaries toward a common purpose. And our approach gives them the tools and the courage to convert that inspiration into action.

• Our Transformation Workshop shatters the status quo and builds a new culture with new models of thinking and acting that can drive continued, positive change.
• Our on-site Lean Engineering Events coach work teams through applying their own lean methodologies, hands-on in the workplace.
• Our Action and Leadership Team Training replaces lifetimes of stifling hierarchical communications with new strategies and insights for working together as elements in pursuit of the same mission.
• Our Adjunct Management and other Business Transformation Services are available to bring targeted focus on specific problems that require immediate action where no on-staff expertise exists.

Delta Stratagem is made up of a team of professionals who are passionate about their drive to restore America's business greatness, one company at a time.

Delta Stratagem knows how to jump-start moribund companies. Transform the people and you can transform the company.

Look at any business - manufacturing or services. Take away the capital assets and what's left are interactions among employees, customers and suppliers. Operational and administrative excellence depends on the people.

We help employees get smarter about the business. Followers turn into contributors, eager to share their knowledge about the realities of the line. Executives see how they can use their talents to get their people what they need to excel and grow the business rather than remaining slaves to spread sheets and short-term financials. This is the stuff that reinvigorates companies and replaces doubt with confidence in the future.

"America is not Japan. You can't just tell people what to do. You have to help them understand the "why," invest in the process and own the change. Only Toyota is Toyota. Each company needs to define its own path and learn how to succeed on its own."
Tony Mangione, President, Delta Stratagem

Tony developed the Delta Stratagem approach following a 20-year career in Lean transformation at General Motors. He has helped with turnarounds at companies large and small, including Philips and GE. Tony holds an MBA in Management from Rochester Institute of Technology, an MS in Manufacturing Management and MS in Operations Management from Kettering University. He also created manufacturing-oriented training in the Lean methodology through various associations and universities including the University of Dayton Center for Competitive Change, where lectures as a Senior Fellow.

Tony applies the disciplines and analysis principles of traditional Lean in a uniquely American brand that acknowledges independence, individuality and the entrepreneurial spirit. This synthesis transforms business by forging individual components of organizations into a cohesive force for success. It connects strategy with operational excellence and an integrated workforce that transcends departmental structures. "I look at current states and lead people to see what's missing. The goal isn't to achieve what's possible, but what one thinks is impossible."
