Frameworks
(included in Half-Day sessions)
Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA): The PDSA framework involves a continuous cycle of planning, implementing, evaluating, and refining processes. It is a powerful tool for identifying areas of improvement, testing new ideas, and achieving better results over time.
Lean Six Sigma: This framework combines the principles of Lean and Six Sigma to optimize processes and eliminate waste. It provides a structured approach for continuous improvement by identifying and removing inefficiencies and defects in workflows.
Kaizen: This framework emphasizes a culture of continuous improvement and involves making small, incremental changes over time. It involves the participation of all employees in identifying areas for improvement and implementing solutions, resulting in sustained improvement over time.
Conclusion
Managing change can be challenging, but with the right strategies and tools, it can also be an opportunity for continuous improvement and growth. By taking a data-driven, agile approach to change management, organizations can adapt more quickly and effectively to stay ahead of the competition.
