About the Webinar

Many companies around the globe are embracing the mindset of Lean systems, which emphasize the prevention of waste. Waste is defined as extra time, labor, or materials spent producing a product or service that doesn’t add value to it. Program and project managers unanimously agree that there is ample opportunity to reduce if not eliminate project work, but they are unsure where to start when each outcome is unique and customer relationships are more important than standardized processes. This webinar will show how Lean intersects with agile and where to start to embrace the concepts and benefits of continuous improvement in project work.

Learning objectives:
• Determine how Lean can be applied in a service environment.
• Adopt best practices of Lean in project management.
• Determine how Lean and agile approaches intersect to deliver continuous improvement.
• Become familiar with key definitions and concepts of process improvement.
