I liked the small group setting
Kristin Standen - Orica Canada
Kurs - Lean Distribution: Implementing Lean in Distribution, Logistics, and Supply Chain Operations
The simulation exercises (workshop) gave me a real feel of how it is to experience "leaning" up the process. It provides a "sticking effect" to the theories that were discussed.
Bethany Magpayo - InSolem SARL
Kurs - Lean Services: Lean Management For The Service Industry
That after 3 days of training I have the entire overview on Agile how to use them in my case, how to calculate efficiency, approach negative employees and many more.
Joanna Meza - Zurich Insurance
Kurs - Managing Agile Projects with Lean and Kanban
I was benefit from that Armor management personnel is taking it seriously.
