Your Bottom Line |
Strategic plans
are great, but how are you going to implement?
The Lean Manufacturing Certification Program will help change
agents understand and ultimately teach the core values of
Lean. This approach is an overall business and cultural analysis
of standardization, employee empowerment and continuous improvement.
Most programs focus only on the technical aspects. This program
will teach social systems as well as technical systems. Sociology
drives technology. If management understands social systems
and culture, the organization will operate more successfully.
"Everyday we must make one small improvement
to our home, work, and community life. The Americans are obsessed
with our technical systems, but no one is concerned with the
culture that will develop them."
- Fujio Cho - President of Toyota Motor
