Mirko Heidel · Founder, lean and problem solving for 10+ years
The challenge
When the same problems keep coming back, every disruption becomes a cost factor.
Rework. Waiting times. Recurring errors. Unclear responsibilities. Managers who constantly have to step in.
Recurring errors and disruptions
Problems are fixed short-term without removing the causes. Rework, delays and alignment effort remain.
Managers as permanent problem solvers
Teams depend on management decisions. Bottlenecks arise and valuable management time is lost.
Improvements without lasting effect
Solutions are agreed but not consistently implemented, checked and embedded in daily work.
The decisive lever
Not fixing problems faster. But enabling teams to remove their causes for good.
What this should improve
- Fewer recurring disruptions and less rework
- Clearer responsibilities and faster problem solving
- More independence and problem-solving skill in the team
- Measurable improvements based on jointly agreed KPIs
Not another improvement project that disappears in day-to-day business. But a clearly limited start into lasting operational improvement.

The core offer
The 12-Week Reset
From day-to-day firefighting to independent improvement.
A clearly limited start: for twelve weeks a pilot team works on its own problems – guided, but doing the work itself. At the end we check what has changed and what the team can now do on its own.

Who it is for
Who the Reset is for.
Focus
Operational teams
Teams that work with processes, KPIs and disruptions every day.
Also possible
Service & administration
Recurring problems happen in offices too – the approach works there just the same.
Especially suited to mid-sized companies
As structures grow, demands rise – while day-to-day business leaves little time for systematic improvement. HIGHDEL builds this capability directly in the team.

FAQ
Before we talk.
What role does the manager play?
A central one. The Reset requires the responsible manager to be visibly involved, make time for implementation and remove obstacles. Without this commitment, new routines rarely last.
Does digital support work in production and shift work too?
Yes. Coaching takes place by video, together as a team, for example at shift handover in front of one screen in a meeting room. Not every employee needs their own PC. I add on-site work where it helps.
How much time does it take our team?
Most of the work happens in everyday work on the agreed focus areas. On top come the kick-off and usually a weekly 60-minute online coaching session.
Does the team need prior experience?
No. The programme adapts to the team’s level. What matters is the willingness to work on real topics.
What does the Reset cost?
The Reset is offered at a fixed price per team. Scope and price are set out in an individual proposal you receive after the initial call.
