Lean Six Sigma Training Singapore

Why train your employees?

In today’s fast-changing business environment, organizations are constantly pushed to innovate and improve. To do that, the ability and competency of the employees are key. Therefore, it is paramount that organizations constantly equip employees with the knowledge and skills to “Learn, Unlearn and Relearn”

CFO: What happens if we train them and they leave?

CEO: What happens if we don’t and they stay?

Our Learning Methodologies

“Learning is an experience. Everything else is just information”

At Lean Institute Asia, we don’t train, we engage and encourage participants to learn. We believe learning should be enjoyable and fun, as such we design all our courses to facilitate different adult learning styles. This is to ensure effective transfer of knowledge and skills to the learner.

According to acclaimed American educational theorist David Kolb’s paper published in 1984, effective learning happens when a person goes through four stages in the experiential learning cycle, refer to diagram on the right, (1) going through a concrete experience followed by (2) observations and reflections on the concrete experience which results in (3) the development of abstract concepts (analysis) and generalisations (conclusions) which lead to (4) active experimentation of the conclusions (hypothesis) in future situations, results in new learning experiences. 

Kolb’s Experiential Learning Style

Why attend Lean Six Sigma training?

Lean and Six Sigma are two fundamental methods in the continuous improvement to drive efficiency and effectiveness in organizations. The trainings are designed to impart the participant’s time-tested problem-solving framework and tools to tackle the different type of challenges at work. Lean training focuses on eliminating different types of process wastes to deliver maximum customer value. On the other hand, Six Sigma training focuses on identifying the key factors in the process that caused the product or service not meeting customer specifications. By eliminating process wastes and defects, it will result in significant improvement in customer satisfaction and business profitability.
