Description

As managers, we constantly struggle to balance between important long term improvement projects and daily issues to fire-fight. No matter which sector you are from, how big or small your organization is, what level you are, there are no exceptions.

In Lean Management or in Lean Manufacturing, there are well established approaches called as "Nichijo Kanri" aka Daily Work Management that addresses this imbalance. Unfortunately, many Lean Manufacturing Managers are also not aware of the Daily Work Management (DWM) to any extent that they can independently implement it.

Daily Work Management will help you to establish a systematic approach to manage business-as-usual affairs, delegate, empower and manage performance of business/process. Lean Startups usually focus more on boot strapping and developing products and services using Lean principles. When it comes to scaling up, even Lean Startups struggle to establish a systematic way of work, called as standard work in Lean Management. Many successful startups are examples to this phenomenon.

Thus this course is applicable to all managers including Lean Startup, Lean Manufacturing and organizations not adopting lean management.

  • This course includes a PROJECT WORK to establish a daily work management system 

  • This course will help you to create MANAGING POINTS & CHECKING POINTS, and cascade it vertically and horizontally

  • This course includes examples from IT, Digital Marketing, Sales and Marketing & General Management

  • THIS COURSE IS NOT FOR JUST MANUFACTURING PROFESSIONALS.

Who this course is for:

  • Senior & Mid Level Managers across IT, Services & Manufacturing
  • Small Business Owners who wish to scale up their organization
  • Lean Practitioners & Aspiring Managers
  • Lean Manufacturing & Lean Startup Professionals
