Advanced Lean

Whether you're on the path to becoming a Lean facilitator or Lean master—or just looking to enhance your knowledge and skills—this course gives you a deep and extensive understanding of Lean concepts, tools, techniques and applications.

Advanced Stakeholder Management

Are you responsible for implementing a major change? Is everyone sold on the idea and actively supporting it? Change isn’t easy for people, but people are critical to the success of change. In fact, failure to gain their buy-in is the No. 1 reason why initiatives and projects fail. When leaders understand the theory of change and adopt the right constructs, skills, behaviors and tools, then they are able to influence those people positively and move the mountains they need to move.

Basic TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving)

TRIZ is a powerful set of tools, algorithms and methods for solving innovation dilemmas, very difficult R&D problems and other stubborn performance issues. Take this course if you want to journey beyond the obvious and discover how you can always know what you don’t know—and achieve what you otherwise couldn’t achieve.

Change Leadership

Change is inevitable, and necessary to master, for every organization.  Based on a proven, disciplined process, this course will dramatically improve your ability to lead change initiatives and drive organizational transformation.

Change Pro Certification

The ability to manage change is critical. Many excellent projects and initiatives fail because people don’t know how to manage the process effectively. To improve their success rate, organizations must develop their capability in this area. That’s where Change Pro Certification comes in, enabling you to deliver the highly effective Change Pro Simulation in your organization. The course fee includes the first license.

Design for Lean Six Sigma (DFLSS)

DFLSS comes into play when you want to develop new products and processes—or improve existing ones to an extent that requires their redesign. This course will give you everything you need to vaccinate your new designs against waste, defects and errors before you finalize and launch them.

Driving the Acceptance of Change

You may have heard the expression, “Change would be easy if it weren’t for all the people.” It’s true—effective change management requires gaining buy-in from key stakeholders with power in the organization and influence over the change effort. Failure to gain buy-in is a critical factor necessary for successful and sustainable change. When leaders understand the theory of change and gain experience with applying related methods and tools, they are able to enroll people in the change effort and move mountains. This one-day workshop equips you with the knowledge and tools to do just that.

Everyday Innovation: Tools and Techniques

Innovation is a necessary part of being a successful, sustainable organization. But how do you make it a regular, predictable part of your business? Everyday innovation doesn’t have to be out of your reach. By applying simple, proven approaches, your company can create a culture that embraces innovation. To do this, you must look forward instead of back. You must understand that innovation is for all, not just a select few. And you must sometimes scrap the very process that you’ve worked to improve.

Hoshin Planning: Connecting Strategy Creation with Strategy Execution

Pick up a recent issue of the Harvard Business Review or read the latest management blog and you’ll see: The debate between which is worse—your strategy or your execution—rages on. There are plenty of studies that show how “80 percent” of companies don’t have a well-thought-out business plan. The idea being that if they just had the plan, then the organization would be ready to deliver. Then there’s just as much literature that espouses the exact opposite: It’s not the strategy that’s lacking, but the sound business processes needed to execute.

Innovation and Design Tools

Innovation and design tools are needed because they get us beyond our own minds and limitations. But then we need other tools to reel us in when it’s time to turn ideas into profitable products or services. This course will give you all the tools you need along the entire innovation pathway.
