Managing Quality Improvement (3O04)


Description
COURSE OVERVIEW
Most medium and larger organizations today will have well established Quality management systems. Most managers will be aware of them although few will have in depth knowledge of how they work, and their relative effectiveness in promoting productivity and portability. Yet, the purpose of all Quality Assurance and Control systems is to contribute towards the overall value creation for shareholders and stakeholders: not to simply ensure compliance with industry and norms and practices.

The introduction of a continuous improvement culture is the key to long term success in today’s manufacturing and services environments. Such a culture requires leadership, resourcing and continuous nurturing. As a leader, you can gain substantial traction in your career if you can demonstrate success with the application of these principles, and in the successful execution a business improvement program.

This comprehensive course will provide you an insight into all the key concepts used by specialists in Continuous improvement, and enable you to successfully lead business improvement initiatives, and help build a continuous improvement culture in your organization.
