In the current competitive global environment, many businesses are finding it challenging to sustain growth while increasing profitability as well as customer and employee satisfaction. Office Lean is a proven improvement methodology that enables fast and sustainable business results, yielding significant ROI. It is quickly becoming a weapon-of-choice in both product and service industries. Utilizing a cross-functional team approach of people who "do the work," Office Lean enables process simplification by reducing waste in critical business areas and by addressing the voice of the customer.
The course instructors have created a unique program translating traditional manufacturing Lean to other areas of a business where strategic and tactical results are needed.
The Office Lean Certificate program focuses on process excellence within administrative and transactional areas, including:
-Healthcare
-Service Industries (Human Resources, Insurance, Financial)
-Accounting (Receivables / Payables)
-Product Development
-Consumer Products
The certificate program provides a healthy combination of dialogue, case study and hands-on simulation where students are to see Office Lean methodology successfully applied.
Training Description:
