“George is an astonishingly experienced person, in the practice, philosophy and mindset, as well as the reality of Lean, and covers an impressive breadth. He also lives the values of lean in the way he does work and guides organizations. He mentored me and guided me in my journey to lean IT and my plans of developing a body of knowledge around it, and was a terrific source of knowledge and advice for understanding lean deeper. I very much enjoyed his Lean Construction course too, and feel very privileged to be able to work with him.”

When Jeff Liker wrote “the Toyota Way to Lean Leadership” with Gary Convis we knew that “lean leaders” would finally have a way to live the company values, become excellent at process improvement following the disciplined approach of Plan-Do-Check-Act, learn to coach others in process improvement, and lead both horizontally across the company and vertically within their area of responsibility. This allows them to achieve the challenging targets the organization needs for success. View our teaching objectives.
This course provides each Yellow Belt student and Green Belt student the opportunity to meet Jeffrey K. Liker in a WebEx webinar every week by registering at http://LikerLeadership.webex.com . Green Belt students receive an additional 20 hours of personal coaching (in one hour segments) as they make their way through a project sponsored by their organization. Management teams of four or more team members will receive a 25% discount for working through the Green Belt certification using a common project. Contact [email protected] to make additional arrangements.
This course provides an overview of each step in the lean leadership development process: Self-development, Developing and Coaching Others, Supporting Daily Kaizen, and Creating a Vision and Aligned Goals.
