Forum | QLD - Productivity Improvement and Enterprise Excellence

This forum will focus on Continuous Improvement; sustaining the improvements!

Most businesses have implemented some form of Productivity Improvement process and have had mixed experiences.

Sustained Productivity Improvement requires fostering a culture of growth, leadership commitment, regular communication, and feedback.

It also requires the adoption of an adaptive and agile mindset, employee involvement, and knowledge sharing to promote ongoing learning and innovation.

By implementing these strategies, organisations can create a sustainable environment where productivity improvement thrives and contributes to long-term success.

For this forum, we will be joined by two special guest presenters / authors who will share their experiences in the important areas of Productivity Improvement and Enterprise Excellence.

Guest Presenter 1:

     Ishan Galapathy
     Author, Productivity Expert & Speaker

Renowned for his simplified techniques, Ishan helps manufacturing businesses to achieve more through productivity improvement and leadership programs.
