Lean Seminars

 

Lean management seminars


The topic of lean management encompasses a wide range of methods, KPIs and tools that are aimed at increasing efficiency within your business. As our customer, to give you the tools and expertise you need to create and maintain optimised value streams independently into the future, we run many seminars as part of our service portfolio.

Visit us in Berlin…

We work with your team to organise the seminar in a five-star hotel in our home city of Berlin. We then host the seminar jointly with you as a one-day event.

…or we can come to you

Alternatively, we can also host the seminar on your premises. As before, this is a one-day event that we organise after liaising with your team.
