North America has lost plenty of jobs to foreign manufacturers, and not always because costs prices are lower. While Japan first gained competitive advantage through the low prices for its products, it wasn't long before they were competing on quality and dependability. They had a lot to teach us about the manufacturing process we had dominated for so long. And lean was a big part of what we had to learn. Now companies throughout the world are looking to lean to make them more productive, competitive and profitable. Putting lean to work in our companies can make us more successful, and keep more jobs at home. This workshop will give you the knowledge you need to keep local manufacturing alive and profitable.
In this workshop:
- Understand how to keep work local while growing and profiting globally.
- Know where you and your organization need to improve.
- Understand what makes companies successful.
- Learn the top seven business recipes of successful manufacturers.
- Know where to go and what to do next.
- Become a competitive business right here in North America.
