These 60-minute sessions are designed to bring together people working in operations, leadership, and continuous improvement who want to exchange practical ideas and discuss challenges with peers from other organizations.
The theme for this session is:
Challenges with Leadership Buy-In and Support
Many improvement initiatives struggle when leadership alignment is unclear. During this session, participants will discuss real situations, share what has worked in their organizations, and explore practical approaches to strengthening leadership engagement.
