From knowing to doing – How training within industry (TWI) can accelerate your lean journey
If only I had known this when I started my lean journey! This is something I almost always hear when lean thinkers (even the most seasoned ones) get introduced to any J program (job methods, job Instruction, job relations). What about TWI makes them they say that? During this presentation, I will be drawing on my experience to share aspects of TWI that can help any company/organization transition from knowing lean to doing lean!(AME@SD Members: FREE)
06Jun @ 8:00am to 9:00am: Virtual/Online
CultureBrokers defines equity as “results that do not differ by race, ethnicity, culture, and other meaningful differences.” Interpreted in this way, equity moves from an abstract and amorphous concept toward a practical, structured effort. In this session, we will share how you can operationalize equity using this definition via three big objectives: Proving Commitment, Leveraging Structure and Being Disciplined. We will explore some key principles and related actions in support of these objectives which can ultimately become a living, valuable part of the way your organization behaves. Finally, we will crosswalk this with the Baldrige DEI criteria so you can see how these support each other.(AME@SD Members: FREE)

Alan Robinson: What the private sector can learn from cutting-edge C.I. in the public sector
Learning opportunity with Dr. Alan Robinson, author of such books as The Idea-Driven Organization, Ideas Are Free, and most recently Practical Innovation in Government: How Front-Line Leaders Are Transforming Public-Sector Organizations. In one of the most extensive studies in decades of operational excellence in government, Alan Robinson and Dean Schroeder found high-performing continuous improvement initiatives that had disregarded conventional thinking about how to approach it, and as a result, had attained levels of efficiency and service that would be the envy of any private-sector organization. This presentation will explain how the managers pulled off such radical transformations and share critical lessons for managers who want to do the same. (AME@SD Members:25$)
