Description: You’ve probably heard colleagues talk about Lean but if you don't understand the concepts of Lean or know the terminology, it may seem like they are speaking a different language. If you feel like the intent of process improvement initiatives is being lost in translation, then register for Lean Fluency!
This course incorporates three phases of learning:
- Phase 1 - Pre-workshop activities including watching 5 brief videos, creating a process map, and completing an exercise guide (will take approximately 1 hour)
- Phase 2 - 3-hour facilitated workshop
- Phase 3 - Post-workshop activities (will take 1-2 hours)
Here’s what a few participants from the pilot session have said about the class:
A must-take class! I really wanted to learn what everyone was talking about and so glad that I did. Don’t be put off by the 3-hour timeframe; there is so much information that is presented in a wide variety of formats that will keep you interested and engaged the whole time. I really appreciated the pre-class assignment, which prepared me to be successful in grasping the process. Come join the LEAN team! – Mara Hilliar, Office of the VP for Finance
I thought the Lean Fluency class was great! It was the right amount of time spent on the topics, and I came out of it with a much better understanding of Lean principles, and potential application of them. If you haven’t been exposed to Lean, this is a great way to start. – Dave Boling, FP&A and UFirst
It was a fun class – interesting, informal, and informative. I learned a lot. – Joyce Dunn, PSDS
