Course Content:

Most companies embarking on a continuous improvement journey soon become frustrated with improvement events and isolated projects that yield great short-term results, but have no sustainability and no major innovation.  These companies are searching for something more:  a culture that goes beyond “just managing” continuous improvement.  Success in today’s world of constant change and chaos requires leadership to leverage this uncertainty.  It does no good to improve your path if you need to actually change the path you’re on.

In this program we address the top factors that will take you “Beyond Lean” and out of the Improvement Trap:

  • Going beyond Improvement Tools to align the entire organization
  • Creating, Implementing, and Measuring key performance metrics and targets in the areas of Safety, Quality, Delivery and Cost (SQDC), as well as the Standard Work which evaluates each along with audit strategies
  • Connect operations and all functions across the organization
  • Identify and Coach Improvement (small steps) and Innovation (large leaps) focused on providing Value to the Customer
  • What Plan-Do-Check-Adjust (PDCA) looks like at each management level and what processes are required to support it
  • Set the “framework” for:
    • Lean Leadership System
    • Lean Management System
    • Lean Development System
    • Lean Work System
