Accelerating Continuous Improvement
The Workshop Experience
Many organizations have as one of their principles of operation - Continuous Improvement. But …… the real question is not, “Are you continually improving?”, but rather, “Are you continually improving faster than your competition?” Everyone is improving, but some are going out of business because they are not improving fast enough. The real issue for leadership is the RATE of improvement.
This workshop is based on time-tested essential elements for leading accelerated continuous improvement in your organization. You will see numerous examples where these essentials have been applied in a wide-spectrum of enterprises around the globe to bring about a transformation.
