Lean Training for Healthcare Labs

For busy healthcare quality and lab professionals to train front-line workers on Lean and get started delivering results immediately. These DVDs are perfect for an overview or just in time team training.

If you could be 10 times faster without working any harder, would you?

Every non-lean business process takes 10-20 times longer than necessary.

How is that possible? Easy. The people are busy, but the sample is idle over 90% of the total lead time. You have to stop watching at your people and start watching your sample.

The Lean for Healthcare Labs Training Videos will show you, step-by-step, how to identify and eliminate the non-value added delay from your processes. It's so simple that most people won't believe it until they see it. In a world that worships complexity, lean thinking seems too simple. Yet that's it's power.
