A Lean Practitioner The Lean Practitioner course is the course for Continuous Improvement professionals who wish to learn how to improve processes by using Lean methods and tools. “When you focus on costs, quality decreases. When you focus on quality, costs decrease.” The Lean practitioner is the initiator of Lean improvement processes and Lean implementation. A hands-on professional whose objective is to develop the perfect process and inspire those involved to do better on a daily basis. The Lean Practitioner has an excellent command of the Lean methods and tools, is familiar with Lean principles and inspires others to participate in the improvement process. Within organisations Lean Practitioners are the specialists who make organisations excel and enthusiastically transfer the Lean principles onto others. The Lean Practitioner course The Lean Practitioner is a 3-day course which follows the international ISO18404 standard. This standard specifies in great detail what competencies are required for a certified Lean Practitioner. During the Lean Practitioner course, you will learn how to apply the most important Lean principles, methods and tools in the field. Using an extensive simulation, the focus is on the practical application of Lean. The most important subjects which will be covered are: the 7+1 types of waste, client value, Value Stream Mapping, flow, pull, 5S, Poka Yoke and improvement boards. On day 3 the focus will be on Lean project management and data analysis. In Lean jargon this is called A3 management, an 8-step plan to improve a process. Successfully implementing change often depends on the way you have dealt with resistance. Therefore, this course will also cover change management topics. Where does resistance come from? How can you recognise it? What is the best way to deal with it?
