Workshops are held once per month
(usually 4th Wednesday) as a cost effective way to keep up to date on
quality practices, and to network with some of the best quality
professionals in industry. Dinner & 0.3 re-certification units
included. See
feedback from past workshops, "... the
workshop was AWESOME!", or "... the best investment I've made in
years".
The Hoshin Kanri Overview workshop will introduce
participants to the basic
concepts and philosophy of Hoshin Kanri.
At the conclusion of the workshop, participants will
understand the history of Hoshin and how it is used today. They will
understand how Hoshin is an integral part of TQM and how it provides focus
for other quality systems like Six Sigma and Lean.
Participants will understand that Hoshin is a form
driven process,
and they will be able to list the forms that comprise a complete Hoshin
plan. Most importantly,
participants will understand that Hoshin is much
more than forms - it provides the foundation for effective business
management.
