This course will introduce you to Lean Thinking, which is a methodology that can help you work smarter, not harder. Lean Thinking helps prepare you for employment in manufacturing, participate as a member of a Lean or Continuous Improvement team, and further the skills to become a Lean Leader. Lean Thinking aims to deliver the highest quality at the lowest cost, in the shortest lead time. To do this, company processes need to be closely examined and inefficiencies, or waste, weeded out not just by management, but by every worker in the organization.
