Members of improvement teams often spend many hours creating plans that could help their businesses eliminate waste and add value to their customers, only to see their well-thought-out ideas never get fully implemented.

This presentation will cover the key elements necessary for understanding the change process and the step-by-step tools needed for the preparation, implementation, and follow-up necessary to successfully integrate new strategies into every-day work routines.
