If you are ready to enhance your Lean capabilities, you may like to take a look at our Kaizen and 5S training courses.
5S is the Sort, Set, Shine, Standardise and Sustain approach to greater productivity, and is considered to be one of the easiest first steps to establishing Lean in an organisation.
You can attend a 1-day 5S course by itself, or combine 5S with Kaizen on a 1-day course. Kaizen focuses on culture and philosophy as drivers of improvement and employee motivation.
