About the Course
This two-day, hands-on workshop focuses on the real-world application of Process Flow Analysis in a live or simulated workplace. Participants will carry out a Gemba Walk to observe processes first-hand, explore different ways of visually representing workflows, and record the current state of a process. Using this information, they will identify unnecessary steps, excessive delays, and non-value-added activities before redesigning a process that delivers greater efficiency and clarity.
The course includes guided activities to analyse real processes, with practical tips on engaging teams, choosing effective visual formats, and creating standardised workflows
