LAA seminar in Melbourne: Thriving - Not Just Surviving
04 Aug 2009
The concept of performance improvement excellence is more than doing things better – it’s doing better things. This requires a different way of thinking and understanding how value is created and delivered – from the customer’s point of view.
Many organisations find it difficult to identify and quantify the potential of ‘doing better things’. This Logistics Association of Australia workshop will demonstrate the extent of potential improvement by:
♦ Understanding the end-to-end process
♦ Engaging all stakeholders
♦ Understanding how value is created – from the customers view point
♦ Seeing and understanding work – the importance of knowing what frontline people have to do to create and deliver value
♦ Understanding the concepts of flow and waste
♦ Identifying the reality of the current state – the way it actually happens now …
♦ then creating a future IDEAL state vision …
♦ with cross-functional teams – a culture not a project
Who should attend: People who are accountable for whole of business, or end-to-end supply chains, seeking business excellence performance.
