Conference sessions have been designed to provide specific tracks for lean implementation leaders and supervisors. The conference offers two distinct tracks, and the schedule for each track can be found in the conference brochure . Track A and B will overlap at lunch and the evening reception on May 15. Lean Implementation Leaders are the individuals in the plant who work full time on lean implementation providing lean training, kaizen facilitation, and overall guidance of the lean implementation effort. Lean Implementation Leaders often report to the senior manager at the facility or company.
Supervisors are responsible for production and supporting the lean efforts in their areas.
This track focuses on supervisors because they are often not provided with specific lean training on their role in the lean implementation effort. Lodging Guestrooms have been blocked at the Grove Park Inn.
