Have you heard of the Toyota production system? Have you heard about companies using professionals who’ve earned “belts” to improve processes? Learn how using the Lean Six Sigma methodology can:
• streamline processes and reduce non-value-added activities
• improve quality and reduce cost
• improve customer satisfaction
• reduce waste and rework
• identify the real cause of problems
• enable you to know when you have REALLY made an improvement
Attend this workshop and learn the toolset that companies use to perform at a higher level (Six Sigma), better meet their customers’ needs, and strive to pursue perfection.
