Description

Being able to map a process is something highly in demand in today’s world. If you’re an employee, your manager wants to see how much more value you can bring to your role – and being able to map out your key processes for a variety of purposes is one way you can do this. If you’re a business owner, it is crucial you know exactly what is going on in each and every process that makes up your organisation. Flowcharts are a powerful tool that can do just that!


In this course, we will cover:


- The fundamentals of process mapping (What is process mapping, what is a flow chart, key icons etc.)


- A step by step breakdown of how to build a flowchart, with practical demonstrations of each.


- Identifying what purpose the finished flowchart can have.


- How to identify value and waste using a flowchart.


- How to deliver process improvements using a flowchart.


- A case study example of how the instructor deployed flowcharts into an organisation for the purpose of enabling the organisation to see the end-to-end process.


Mapping flowcharts is relatively straightforward, but people often overcomplicate this task. This course takes a simple beginner's guide, step by step approach to helping you understand exactly how to map a flowchart, for what purpose and the potential effects of this.

Who this course is for:

  • Business and process analysts who document workflows
  • Process owners who need clearer operational visibility
  • Operations managers identifying bottlenecks and waste
  • Improvement practitioners preparing process-change work
