This course will help you understand the history of Lean, how to apply the principles of Lean Production in different environments and how to improve your internal processes.

Achieving Excellent Customer Service

How do you achieve excellent service for your customers and reduce complaints?
This course covers the concept of customer demand split into ‘value demand’ and ‘failure demand’, you will understand the ‘Voice of the Customer’ and the principles of Lean Consumption to reduce the effort a customer has to exert to use your services and in turn improve service levels and customer satisfaction. In addition, it covers improved complaints handling, ‘true’ root cause analysis and most importantly how to link these back to improvement activities that prevent them happening again and again.

Leading People Through Change

Why is change so poorly handled, badly implemented and rarely creates behaviour change?
The course covers the drivers for change, how to change organisational culture, Kotter’s 8-step process, the impact of change on people, the emotional and rational responses they have to change, the factors that lie behind resistance to change and how to gain staff engagement, support and buy-in so that any transition can be successfully embedded so that it becomes the new ‘way we do things round here’.
