TITLE: Building the Lean Supply Chain Leader
Transforming an organization from traditional thinking to lean thinking requires leadership. This is the third course in a 3-course series on becoming a Lean Supply Chain professional. While the previous courses focus on strategic and tactical implementation of the lean supply chain, this final course "builds" the individual into a lean leader. This transformation is critical to navigate through the waters of change management that is required to successfully execute and sustain the lean supply chain journey.
In the third course participants will complete a deep dive of the concept of House of Lean and explore the main aspects of lean leadership. Among other important topics, participants will learn "go see" management, "A3 thinking" and "leader-as-teacher" concepts.
Day 1 - The Lean Culture
Day 2 - Lean Principles Deep Dive
Day 3 - The Lean Leader
