Most days are over before you know it. You’ve exhausted yourself by running from crisis to crisis, putting out fires. Your team members, although great people, aren’t really engaged. They come to work, do their jobs, and go home. Cross-functional teams consist of silos, each doing the minimum to support each other while working heads down on their own work. You want to make changes and improvements but just can't get to it!
Wanting more for your team, organization, and, frankly, for yourself than the day-by-day grind, you started various continuous improvement initiatives, such as 5S or visual boards, with varying degrees of success and saw some tangible benefits. However, they haven’t stuck. The day-to-day business gets in the way, and soon things return to the old normal.
After reading the latest business book on lean and visiting other companies that are well on their way along in the journey, it all looks so simple! After all, it’s not rocket science! If “they” can do it, you certainly can! You’ve got this.
BUT… WHERE should you start? WHAT… can you do to avoid the common pitfalls? HOW… can you sustain it?
Become a high performance lean leader with Lean 4 Leaders Bootcamp: Empowering Excellence.
Lean 4 Leaders Bootcamp is a comprehensive and dynamic workshop designed to introduce or refresh leaders to the essential skills, mindset, and methodologies to lead successful lean transformations within their organizations. As a lean leader, you will have a holistic approach to lean principles, blending your leadership skills with lean methodologies to foster a culture of continuous improvement and excellence within your office or manufacturing environment. Through a dynamic and progressive build approach, we will guide you through four interconnected modules: stabilize, standardize, visualize, and sustain and improve. Throughout the workshop, each theme builds upon its predecessor, fostering a comprehensive understanding and practical application of the concepts, ensuring the leader and their organizations achieve lasting success and continuous improvement.
“Partnering with Glenn of HPL was a terrific opportunity to build upon our current in-house training as part of our Supervisory Leadership Program to further deepen the organization's understanding of the various Lean tools deployed by our company. This investment in 80 people leaders of the organization is another example of CenterLine’s commitment to Lean and providing the tools necessary to meet the Strategic Mission of continuously improving.
Throughout the program, our leaders embarked on a journey of growth and learning, embracing the fundamental principles of customer value creation. By establishing a common shared purpose, our leaders have gained invaluable insights into how to lead and engage their team members in process improvements, sustaining mechanisms, and problem-solving. We commend our leaders for their dedication and commitment throughout this program. We are excited to see the long-term impact of this transformative journey as our leaders continue to sustain and improve upon their achievements."
