Executive Short Course - Lean Leadership

A 3 day workshop designed for senior staff as a major stepping stone on a journey to creating a Lean Enterprise in their own organisation. It draws on the results of LERC's 'SUCCESS' research project, which examined the ingredients for successful and sustained lean transformation.

Background

In order to develop a truly Lean Enterprise it is necessary for leaders to understand what lean thinking is, how it needs to be approached, what their role is in leading the organisation and how they need to instil a set of, often, new behaviours and levels of engagement.

A significant step on this journey is participating in a ‘Leading the Lean Lifestyle’ education event with the objective of:

• Gaining an understanding of what Lean Thinking is and how others have successfully used it.
• Gaining an understanding of what it means to you.
• Gauging where you are on your lean journey
• Establishing a broad implementation plan and the next steps to take.

Using the ‘Lean Business Model’ the workshop will provide you with insights into what a true Lean Enterprise is, the different elements that must be addressed, where you are on your lean journey and perhaps most importantly provide a framework for you to consider how you might go about creating a Lean Enterprise in your organisation.

Topics Covered

• Lean principles & putting them into practice
