Event Details

This is a past event.

In this fun and interactive workshop, you'll practice visualizing the fundamental Lean concepts of flow and waste and see how you can apply them to your job right away. You'll also learn about Lean culture and the principles of Lean thinking, and participate in problem-solving using the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) model. You'll use the 5 Whys to help you discover root causes, identify waste and unsafe acts and conditions, use meeting management tools to keep your improvement discussions on track, and recommend process improvements. After the workshop, you'll be ready to actively participate in a kaizen (improvement) event.

Lean White Belt certification is awarded to those who satisfactorily complete all requirements for this Lean Fundamentals workshop.
