Description
Dear Learners, I welcome to this course on Lean operations (Lean Thinking, Lean Systems, Lean Tools)In the present times of very high competition, the concept of "Lean operations" has become very important for delivering Value and achieving High efficiency in organizations. It is providing organizations with innate ability to sustain and grow even in difficult business conditions. “Lean” is universal in it’s approach and can be applied to any business or operation, from manufacturing to marketing to supply chain to software development.The course is covered in “7 sections” and in each section there are about 2 to 3 Lectures.Section-1 (Introduction to Lean and what is Value)Lecture-1-IntroductionLecture-2- Introduction to LeanLecture-3- What is ValueSection-2 (What is Waste, Muda, Mura & Muri)Lecture-4-Muda or the 7 wastesLecture-5- What is MuraLecture-6- What is Muri. A practical insight and relationship between Muda, Mura, MuriSection-3 (Push versus Pull systems, Value Stream Mapping)Lecture-7-Push versus Pull systemsLecture-8- Value Stream Mapping. Lead Time & Process TimeSection-4 (Approach to Lean, Benefits of Lean systems)Lecture-9- What should be the Approach to LeanLecture-10- Benefits of Lean systemsSection-5 (Toyota Way. 4 P’s & 14 Principles))Lecture-11-The Toyota Way -A very critical philosophy in LeanLecture-12- 4 P’s & 14 Principles, PDCA for continuous improvementSection-6 (Critical Tools in your Lean deployment journey)Lecture-13- 5S MethodLecture-14- SMED (Single Minute exchange of Dies)Section-7 (Critical Tools in your Lean deployment journey)Lecture-15- Kaizen MethodLecture-16- 5 Why Analysis ( A useful problem solving Tool)Lecture-17- FMEA (Failure Mode & Effect Analysis), A useful Tool for risk mitigation, reliability & failure analysisThere are various multiple-choice Q&A’s in every section to test your quick grasp of the topics and understanding of the Lecture. There are also a few thought provoking questions to make you think during the various phases of Lecture.All these Lectures have been prepared keeping in mind simplicity of delivery and for facilitating a good grasp of all topics covered in the course. With my diversified global experience of nearly 27+ years, working with different cultures and having executed projects across various geographies of the world, I always believe that Trainer should step into the Learner's shoe, while executing the training. This surely helps in ensuring high quality, strong retention and overall enjoyable learning experience.After course completion, I would also request your valuable feedback, as this greatly helps to improve the quality of courses. Thanks once again, for enrolling.
