AKA… Continuous Improvement Tools, Lean Tools, Leaders Toolbox, Basic Skills… the list of name tags depending upon the market sector or organisation you work in goes on and on, however from experience we find they all mean essentially the same thing. The key differentiator being the capability and experience of the provider to impart their knowledge in a way that the fundamental principles are understood and the delegate is both inspired and challenged to effectively apply them to their operation after leaving the training room. Co-ordinated and effective usage of business improvement tools gives a Return on Investment (ROI) which invariably outstrips returns on capital investment projects and can be achieved in a fraction of the time. All of the basic principles are fundamental to your peoples understanding and key enablers for successful application of major change projects e.g. re-organisation, automation or digital transformation. We can teach and facilitate effective usage of a range of tools & techniques that make this a reality.

We are proud of our range of Standard and Bespoke training programmes aimed at developing capable and effective operational leaders. Typically, our programmes cover the spectrum of key skills and knowledge required to be an effective Operations Leader. A leader that can immediately add value to your business and with the practical nature of the programme, will typically have delivered a Return on Investment (ROI) before the programme is complete.
