An IndustryWeek Webinar Invitation
Is your tried and true culture in need of new transformational ideas? Join us to learn how to transform your current company culture to create end-to-end business transformations that support Operational Excellence.
During the webinar, Kevin Duggan, President of Duggan Associates, will explain how to address the problems of your existing culture head on. Learn how to create a place where everyone knows where your company is going with its improvement efforts and understands how these improvements will affect top-line business growth.
Duggan will highlight the most common culture challenges and how to overcome them, including the three key steps Operational Excellence proponents must undertake: getting support from leadership, gaining middle management buy-in, and building acceptance with non-managerial employees.
Hear real-world examples of successful culture transformations and pose your own questions about the challenges your company is facing.
Cultural challenges to Operational Excellence are common, but after this session, you will know how to overcome them to build a culture of growth instead.
