Lean Transformation Workshops
Creating and embracing a culture that supports lean
Delta Stratagem offers an integrated workshop that focuses participants on transforming the organization. Participants learn through a diverse blend of classroom training, dialogue, and hands-on application. They develop new perspectives and discover new approaches to doing business through the integration of lean concepts. Working in small groups, participants develop lean projects and apply these new techniques and methods.

Lean Action Teams
Coaching, leading and guiding employees to a new paradigm
Following the Workshop, Delta Stratagem works with “Lean Action Teams,” which are cross-functional, self-managed groups of employees. They learn the fundamentals of working as a team by building trust, conducting problem solving and learning effective communication techniques. Through simulation exercises, the Teams determine how to best apply these team concepts to their implementation of lean concepts. Developing and cultivating the “people element” of lean is an essential building block to transforming organizations. Supervisors also focus on how to transition their skills to the lean environment—from supervising the daily task to leading and empowering people.

Hands-On Lean Workshops
Bringing it to the floor—engineering and technical support

Through Hands-On Workshops participants learn the technical aspects of Lean. Instruction begins in the classroom and transitions to the plant floor with hands-on activities and coaching from a lean expert. These workshops are customized to best meet the needs and time constraints of each individual organization. Workshops cover the following topics:

  • Lean Simulation
  • Introduction to Lean
  • Workplace Organization, Visual Management and 7S
  • Value Stream Mapping (VSM)
  • Pull Systems
  • Cellular Manufacturing—cell design and standard work
  • Set-Up Reduction
  • Total Productive Maintenance
  • Error Proofing
  • Ergonomic Workplace Design
  • Lean Review/Audit
  • Lean Metrics
  • Lean in the Office
  • Lean in Distribution/Warehouse
  • Supplier Integration
  • Accelerated Lead Time Reduction—process mapping from the inside

Corporate Morphing
Leading and guiding during times of organizational growth or stress

Delta Stratagem is poised to guide organizations through a “corporate morphing” process. Whether a company has enjoyed exponential growth, which has far exceeded the abilities of the existing infrastructure or an organization is plagued with continually falling profits and a failure to fulfill basic customer requirements, Delta Stratagem can lead and guide the management of an organization through an integrated transformation—yielding dramatic results.

Speaking Engagements
