What to Expect!

Continuous Improvement Isn’t Just for the Shop Floor.

We’ve all heard that a journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step. True transformation requires you to learn new things and commit to sustained behavior change. Are you looking to start a CI journey or is your momentum stalled? Fortunately, there are a variety of readily available standard practices to support systemic change in any department in any business. Continuous Improvement is, in the end, about building a culture that empowers team members to become actively engaged problem solvers who are equipped to make sound decisions that benefit your customers.

In this session, we’ll review some of the more widely used methodologies and identify when to use them, discuss effective problem-solving techniques, and put theory into action. You’ll leave with a better understanding of how to adopt a mindset of continuous improvement and become your organization’s CI Champion.

What is the Manufacturing Roundtable?

The Manufacturing Roundtable is your opportunity to connect with industry professionals and engage in meaningful, confidential discussion about the challenges impacting the industry, with content facilitated by our partner, MANTEC. Offer your own feedback and share your experiences with other manufacturing professionals as we discuss best practices and strategies for addressing relevant issues. You'll walk away equipped with practical insight to apply within your own company.
