Although the basic principles of Lean Thinking were initially conceived between the 1940s and 1960s, many companies still fail to understand the positive impact that an organizational structure based on these principles could have on business performance.
This is why—in virtually all manufacturing and service sectors, both public and private—it's common to encounter organizations with five or more hierarchical levels, highly fragmented processes, extremely long market response times and disproportionate inventory levels (just to name a few examples).
By providing the basic foundations of "lean thinking," the "Lean Thinking" course aims to offer practical insights to accelerate the value creation process in companies through a holistic approach that places people, the organization, and... common sense at the centre of the project.
The training objectives are to understand the principles underlying Lean Thinking and the main tools through which it can contribute to the creation of value for customers. In this context, it will be essential to learn the techniques for recognizing, classifying and limiting or eliminating existing waste (muda).
These course objectives are achieved through continuous reference to practical cases that better illustrate how theoretical principles can be implemented in practice. The course can be designed on specific needs of the customers.
