Program Summary:
Change occurs daily in our work lives, and often, that change is not reflected in our daily operating processes. Continually improving our work processes allows the organization to function at its peak, and allows everyone to spend less time fighting fires and more time preventing them. This workshop looks at work from a process perspective and will help you define, plan and implement improvements and optimize your daily management activities.
You Will Learn:
• How to position yourself for success well in advance.
• Determine how to set realistic goals, identify typical problems, evaluate return on investment, put communication strategies in place to overcome people’s fears – all before starting time consuming and costly process analysis.
• To use a series of tools to determine if the processes in place, what to do about them, how to document improvement efforts so the activities become continuous.
• Identify the best people to do the analysis and documentation.
• Discuss what opportunities to look for and what problems to avoid.
• Determine how to ensure changes are sustainable and support the objectives of the initiative back in the work environment.
• Apply a five-step model that systematically defines and identifies opportunities for improvement.
