    How to Create a System of People Willing and Able to Solve Problems 

    Many companies embarking on a Lean journey become frustrated with kaizen events and isolated improvement projects that yield great short-term results but have limited sustainability.  They are searching for something more: the culture of continuous improvement with its philosophy, processes, and people aligned to cultivate problem solving.  Aligning your organization around purpose within a Lean leadership system can leverage the power of the entire organization, not just a few leaders. Learn how to use the Lean work system and its process to create a management development system for your company that will engage leaders daily at all levels to develop your people as problem solvers. This presentation will describe how to create a system of people who are willing and able to solve problems.
