Description
This
workshop will show participants how the pieces and chunks of an
operating system fit together to create a powerful,
people-oriented organization. We’ll explore lean from a systems
perspective focusing first on the need for change, then applying
lean concepts, tools, techniques, and practices to achieve an
efficient, capable, adaptable supply chain to satisfy customers
and employees, and builds an energetic continuous improvement
culture.
The workshop
is built around an extremely complex system-level simulation
that participants will find both challenging and revealing. On
day one, we’ll cover the basics of initiating and sustaining a
change initiative in an organization, focusing on creating real
flow for operations and supporting systems and discovering the
impact these changes have on people. On day two, we focus on
action. We’ll show you what leaders need to DO to make an
improvement initiative work. We’ll end with a discussion about
how adopting a future-focused philosophy sets the right
standards of behavior for everyone in the organization, and how
to build a physical structure to enforce these new standards and
make change stick.
