– Introduce key methodologies and concepts such as Lean & Six Sigma.

– Understand how to deliver CI in the right way, an effective way that will garner the highest impact.

Continuous Improvement has the power to deliver big savings, big reductions in waste and improvements to quality, customer and employee satisfaction. Deliver the CI mind set right, and the rest will do the work for you. And focus on that phrase mind set! As much as CI is made up of a process, a toolkit and several methodologies (such as Lean Six Sigma) it will only be truly successful if the mindset of those embarking on CI is right.  By taking this course and delivering on the learnings, you will see the power of CI for you, your fellow colleagues and the wider organisation.
