EVENT OVERVIEW

Problems left unattended can have a devastating impact on a company. The practise of problem solving when done well can assist a company in addressing deviation, protecting margins and maintaining reputation – stop the problem from becoming worse. Based on the problem complexity different tools can be applied to support problem solving, however the fundamental process and skill remains the same – solving an immediate operational problem with a sustainable solution addressing the root cause.  

This Workshop will focus on problem solving examples across 3 separate industries; Food Production/Manufacturing, Supply Chain/Logistics and Mining with representatives from these industries delivering a joint presentation. 

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Participants will receive instruction and coaching on the systematic application of practical problem solving. As well as tips and tricks to applying the methodology in real world applications; what works and what doesn’t, from industry professionals.
