Course Description

Managing and improving overall plant performance can be challenging. It entails not only the technical elements needed to make improvement happen but the social elements that support the improvement process and allow gains to be sustained over the long term. To be successful, it is important for leaders to create a culture of high performance.

There are several key characteristics of a “high performance” organization; two of the most important are accountability and alignment. To achieve a performance culture that drives growth and profitability, you must ensure that every employee is results-driven and held accountable for actions and decisions. You must also have a clear focus both vertically and horizontally and ensure that all employees are aligned to execute the strategy.

In this interactive, comprehensive, and practical workshop we will cover the key factors needed for high performance organizations to succeed. Learn what it takes to transition your existing culture to a high performance, high empowerment culture…including changes needed in leadership behavior, how to align improvement projects with organizational goals, practicing open authentic communication, providing clarity and agreement, accepting self responsibility and personal accountability, and developing trust.
