That’s exactly what you can do by being part of this unique experience. And the best part? We’re offering it to you in time to make an impact on your 2020 plans.\nDuring this half-day workshop\, you and your colleague will be guided through a revenue planning process designed especially for owner-led businesses.\n\n  \nThe format will allow you to work on YOUR strategic action plan for 2020 and give you a series of accelerated action-steps to drive your revenue to new levels. \n\nThe session is limited to 8 companies\, so RSVP as soon as possible.\nEach participant receives a complete workbook to be used to most effectively capture your Plan.\nAnd the best part: it’s only $295 per participant\, with a special $495 bundle for two attendees.\n\n  \nIf you’re ready to accelerate your revenue in 2020\, Join Us! \n  \nRegister Now>>   \n

SUMMARY:POSTPONED: End-to-End Quality: Better Ways to Create More Value (1-Day Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:**Please note this workshop has been postponed. Stay tuned for new December date**\nDoes Your Company Have a System for Seeing and Solving Quality Issues?\n\n Whether using A3s\, the 5 Whys\, DMAIC\, Value Stream Mapping\, or any other problem-solving tool\, having a System for seeing and solving quality issues can ensure the real problem is solved and protect precious resources from being deployed erroneously to solve a non-existent issue. \n\n Learn a System to Solve Unforeseen Quality Issues\, BEFORE They Happen\n\n Whether it starts on a company’s website\, in a tradeshow booth\, or even during an unconscious first glimpse of a logo\, customers’ perceptions of value begin well before the product or service is ever delivered – and then either build\, or diminish\, during every interaction thereafter. This is critical because 75% of customer defections are the result of poor-quality experiences somewhere between “needs recognition” and “post-delivery support.” Coupled with the fact that a 5% decrease in business typically results in -25% Operating Income\, organizations have more than enough incentive to improve their end-to-end quality. \n\n Lead by Brent Wahba\, Strategy\, Innovation & Transformation executive at Strategy Science\, Inc.\, Brent is a well-known expert in product development\, manufacturing operations\, supply chain management\, and quality control. He brings global managerial and technical expertise across several industries.\n Workshop Prices & Deadlines \n\n\n Early Bird: $1\,295 per person – closes on 9/6/2019 at 11:59 AM\nCEG/CEN Members:  $1\,295 per person – closes on 10/4/2019 at 11:59 AM\nRegular / Non-Member Pricing: $1\,495 per person – opens 9/7/2019 at 12:00 AM\, closes on 10/4/2019 11:59 PM\n\n  \n REGISTER \n  \nWe have known these facts and the related challenges for decades\, but unfortunately\, the methodologies for addressing them (Total Quality Management\, 6 Sigma\, Lean…) are often cumbersome\, require years of focus\, and even under the best circumstances\, do not frequently create quick or sustainable results. \nWhile there may be many company-specific reasons for this\, some of the most common root causes are: \n\n\n De-coupled and misaligned business processes\nCursory understanding of all stakeholder expectations\nLack of coordination between strategy and improvement activities\nBlanket\, organization-wide tool deployment\nToo much non-value-added complexity\n\n  \nThis workshop is designed to help participants of any organizational level or function address these shortcomings and significantly improve their own quality system performance by learning to: \n\nSee quality & value as outputs of an end-to-end delivery system\nMore deeply understand all stakeholder needs\nPrioritize improvement activities based on both strategy and bottlenecks\nPrevent problems instead of firefighting\n“Pull” simplified measurement systems and tools only when necessary\n\n
