Lean Users Group
DVIRC’s Continuous Improvement or Lean Users’ Group is made up of Continuous Improvement leaders within the Philadelphia region’s Industrial, Manufacturing and Distribution community.
Lean Users Group Overview
The Lean Users’ Group is made up of Lean/Continuous Improvement leaders throughout the Philadelphia region. The group provides a unique opportunity for leaders to network with fellow Lean enthusiasts to share views, ideas, and experiences, learn best practices, grow in your knowledge of Lean, and enhance your development in Lean Leadership.
The group is particularly beneficial to company leaders that are looking to grow, solve problems, and/or are undergoing significant change. Driving change is difficult, and Continuous Improvement practitioners in our workplaces deal with pushback every day; this group enables leaders to come together and share the tools and social leadership skills needed to drive organizational improvement.
Consider joining this group if you:
- Would like to become more informed about Lean
- Are pursuing a Lean transformation at your company
- Want to learn from other Lean practitioners
- Want to understand how Lean can help your company
- Have frustrations with implementing Lean
- Have a desire to grow as a leader
