The Process Excellence Bootcamp provides a solid base for optimising the organisational processes in order to achieve the desired outcomes for both customer and organisation. The bootcamp focuses on Lean (process oriented), Six Sigma (data oriented) and Change Management (acceptance oriented) at a Green Belt level.
Over a full week (5 days), effective Lean, Six Sigma and Change Management techniques for improving the outputs of your processes will be explored. Exercises and real life business use-cases will be studied, along with decent discussions and games to experience the power of the methodology. This helps participants to motivate a quick start in solving issues in their organisations and benefit from an excellent organisation.
At the end of these rocking 5 days a paper based multiple-choice exam (included in price) will test your knowledge.
It is highly recommended to start applying what you learned immediately after the bootcamp with a real life project in your own organisation. This will pay back your investment by bringing the learned ideas and tools into practice and brings the knowledge to live. The usual throughput time of such a project is approximately 4 months.
