Masters of the Process Improvement Arts: Transforming government with Lean Six Sigma
Presentation Synopsis: Government services all over the world have suffered from slow and convoluted processes across various levels of complexity. Citizens and government leaders alike have become frustrated with the system and are ready to act. In need of a change, governments are looking at different ways to empower their employees and transform their services.
Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a powerful business management system that combines the best of both Lean and Six Sigma. Lean Six Sigma helps organizations in all kinds of industries upgrade their processes by reducing waste and duplication. There are three dominant levels of Lean Six Sigma expertise: Yellow Belt (beginner), Green Belt (intermediate), and Black Belt (expert). However, Lean Six Sigma can also be used as an effective leadership training tool.
A training program that encompasses all aspects of LSS can be used as a top-down or bottom-up training program for current and aspiring leaders. This Performance Excellence approach offers theoretical and contextual training which progressively provides more and more challenge to emerging leaders.
In this presentation, Danielle will elaborate on this new, contextual approach to leadership development and explore its effect on public sector organizations around the world.
