SUMMARY:Value Stream Mapping: Enhancing Your Practice
DESCRIPTION:Value Stream Mapping: Enhancing Your Practice\n(6-Hr\, Williamsport\, PA)\nThis program starts in: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nMost organizations know what Value Stream Mapping is. Far fewer know how to use it to drive real operational change. This advanced Value Stream Mapping course is designed for manufacturing professionals who are responsible for leading VSM efforts\, not just participating in them. The focus is on using VSM as a systems analysis\, decision‑making\, and focusing tool\, not a drawing exercise. \nComing October 15th – Register now for only $429!\nRegister \nParticipants will learn how to gather accurate information on the plant floor\, lead VSM activities with employees from different departments\, and prioritize improvement ideas for real results. The course also introduces practical ways to analyze data\, identify waste\, support improvement planning\, and identify opportunities for Artificial Intelligence (AI) use. Through discussions\, case studies\, and hands-on exercises\, participants will build the skills needed to lead successful VSM projects and drive continuous improvement within their organizations. \nLearning Objectives\n\nIdentify common problems in value stream mapping projects and recognize opportunities to improve process performance.\nLead and facilitate VSM activities by using effective communication\, listening\, and teamwork skills to gather input from different areas of the organization.\nCollect and verify process data on the shop floor to create more accurate and useful current-state value stream maps.\nDevelop practical future-state improvements and action plans that can be successfully implemented in a manufacturing environment.\nSupport VSM efforts by helping analyze information\, identify improvement and AI opportunities\, and organize implementation plans.\n\nYou will learn to\n\nEnd discussions that result in no action and energize groups to turn conversation into commitment. \nEliminate misaligned and disengaged efforts and stimulate new levels of group cohesion with aligned goals and clear accountability.\nShift from reactive firefighting to proactive strategies that enhance quality and drive profit.\nAnd best of all\, you’ll turn skeptics into supporters and resistors into change agents. \n\nWho Should Attend\n\nManufacturing Business and Process Leaders\nContinuous Improvement & Lean Leaders\nManufacturing & Industrial Engineers\nOperations & Production Managers\nSupervisors responsible for flow and delivery\nAnyone who is (or will become) the internal VSM expert\n\nThis Workshop Includes:\n\n6 Hours of experiential learning and instruction delivered by a field expert.\nEach participant will draft their own value stream map and leave with a plan to focus and align resources to identified priority areas.\nProfessionally packaged training materials.\nA practical toolkit for facilitation methods you can immediately apply to drive team alignment\, engagement\, and results.\n\nComing October 15th – Register now for only $429!\nRegister \nMeet Your Presenter\n \nAs a Continual Impact LLC partner\, Pam Vecellio has helped more than 400 organizations elevate performance\, team engagement\, and results over the past 14 years. She engages teams through interactive training\, coaching\, and facilitation\, leveraging proven methodologies such as Lean\, Quality\, Six Sigma\, and Change to: shorten processing times\, increase quality and reduce costs\, eliminate waste and errors\, boost customer growth\, revenue\, and profitability\, cultivate team engagement\, unlock the potential of people\, and leave behind the skills to sustain long-term improvement. \nPrior to Continual Impact\, Pam spent 18 successful years at Air Products and Chemicals in roles spanning business leadership\, district turnaround leadership\, and lean-six sigma implementation in global functions including human resources\, procurement\, environmental health & safety\, billing\, and facility services.
