To achieve real quality often requires a fundamental reappraisal of the way the organization works. We need to think “why do I do this?” or “How could we do this differently or better?” This workshop helps delegates question the assumptions that govern today’s practice and redesign work in the light of what the organization is setting out to achieve.

Prior to making changes it is essential to establish what is currently happening and why. When one understands how the system is working today, what they are reliably and predictably delivering to the customer and why, then you are in a position to make informed choices about change.
