Creating a continuous improvement culture is necessary for organizations to perform at top levels—and to build a vibrant workplace that attracts and retains top talent. But in many organizations, DIScontinuous improvement is more common—if there’s improvement at all.
The missing element is culture—the way people work and interact with one another, customers, and others outside the organization. It’s the glue that enables continuous improvement to flourish in all areas of an organization.
When organizations build continuous improvement cultures with great intention, there’s no limit to what they can achieve. And no limit to how deeply engaged the workforce can become.
In this course, you’ll learn:
1. The benefits of building a continuous improvement culture.
2. The required cultural characteristics for continuous improvement to thrive.
3. How to build the cultural foundation for success.
4. Key management practices that enable continuous improvement.
5. Common obstacles to success—and how to prevent or remove them should they arise.
6. How to sustain this powerful environment once you’ve built it.
