(Previously offered - in case you missed it). While the tools
of continuous improvement are obviously important, one
thing is certain. If we, as continuous improvement leaders,
fail to respect, effectively motivate, and positively influence
those around us, we will never create strong cultures of
Kaizen. This course will explore the human side of lean in
great detail.
