What kind of LEAN suits your needs? What will help you be more successful and really make an impact?
In short, LEAN methodology looks at value, how this value is organized, the value stream, how this value is flowing, how the customer pulls this value forward, and strives for perfection.
All this is done in a very pragmatic yet structured way. Part of this structure is the various skill levels of LEAN practitioners, this is captured in a Belt system. So let’s break that down to see what is the best fit for you.
Yellow Belt. The entry level into the world of LEAN. Approximately 1 day of education, teaching the basic concepts. Usually used for employees in large groups, as a basis for a longer term LEAN deployment
Green Belt. 4 working day course, teaching practical application of LEAN tools, usually for people who will be part of a LEAN team. Green Belts are expected to be able to deliver projects in their own department, and to be able to deliver Yellow Belt training
Black Belt. Black Belts undergo 8 days of education, and are expected to lead large projects or parts of a deployment across multiple departments. Well versed in the application of LEAN tools, Black Belts are able to manage multiple projects and deliver Green Belt training
Sponsor. Often overlooked, sponsors are the people who open doors for a Belt, and are making sure the doors is anwered nicely. Often senior members of management, sponsors follow +- 4 hours of basic training in LEAN and the responsibility sponsorship is. One of the foremost reasons for project failure is the lack of, or the lack of support from, a sponsor.
Last but not least: Bespoke training. Maybe you have already followed training in the past, but you feel you could do with some freshening up.
