It&#8217;s more like an apprenticeship where you go out and start to try stuff and figure things out. If there&#8217;s somebody around, you get a little help with that. When I started, there was nobody around to help me with that, so I kind of stumbled for a while but then I figured it out.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;This is one of those things where we go out and we learned stuff in the classroom. I had great training, and I got out and I was incapable of actually finding and figuring out the stuff I probably should have been able to figure out quickly. Eventually I did, and then I was like a holy terror\u2026 it was just crazy!<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;So think of this as a learning process. You&#8217;re not going to come out of your training and be a superstar, but you can come out of your training and keep going. Don&#8217;t be one of those \u2018one-and-done-ers\u2019 who do one project and that&#8217;s it, right? Think of this as something you do all the time: at home, at work, wherever you are there&#8217;s opportunities to apply improvement to anything you do\u2026 a homeowners association, whatever it is.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;So that&#8217;s my Improvement Insight for this week. Let&#8217;s go out and improve something this week.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You don&rsquo;t really Learn Quality Improvement or Lean Six Sigma in a classroom.
