Get an overview of key Lean methodologies, including value stream mapping, work instructions, Jidoka, Andon, A3 thinking, and the three Ms of waste: mura, muri, and muda. By the end of this course, you’ll be ready to shift your mindset to Lean, communicating more efficiently and effectively in your role.
