Description

Lean Applied: A Catalyst for Continuous Improvement and Development Join us for Lean Applied for Supervisors! Lean Applied for Supervisors is a two-day activity-based course for frontline leadership and managers. It is based on maintaining and improving a foundation for excellence in any organization. Though not specific to manufacturing, it teaches the concept of shop floor kaizen which consist of three components including: workplace organization, cleanliness, elimination of waste and standard work. In this course participants will learn that shop floor kaizen forces problems to the surface, thus driving organizations and leaders to raise their game to problem solve. Participants will learn tools and techniques of a quality system and how to implement this with team members. They learn to identify what can fail, how to ensure they won’t fail and if things still fail, using root cause analysis to determine why. This course includes a deeper dive into the financial savviness taught in Supervisor Bootcamp. It’s based on the four elements of the Cost of Poor Quality; prevention costs, appraisal costs, internal and external failure costs.
