Methodologies and Best PracticesIt’s our goal at Innovation 360 to help you understand how innovation, business excellence and leadership development can lead to achieving your organization’s strategic objectives and transforming your business. As part of this effort, we’ve compiled below some basic information on the most effective business transformation methodologies.
Of course, the best way to learn is by doing. We offer in-house training workshops for innovation, Lean Six Sigma, Lean Management, Business Process Management (BPM) and Change Management. We also offer public seminars and training workshops.
Systematic Innovation
Innovation is a popular but nebulous buzzword. Many business leaders believe they need to innovate, but they don’t know exactly what that means. Traditionally, innovation has been linked with product design or R&D, but this definition is too limiting. Instead, we can think about Innovation as a problem-solving approach that, if managed correctly, results in organic growth for the business. As such, Systematic Innovation is the process of uncovering problems for which customers need solutions, and then developing products, services, processes and business models that solve these problems.
Lean Six Sigma
Lean Six Sigma is the combination of two different, but complimentary, approaches to Performance Excellence -- Lean and Six Sigma. Organizations that use the tools and techniques of both methodologies to focus on common goals can address a wider array of business issues and typically experience faster percentage gains in ROI. Lean Six Sigma provides a consistent and effective way to bridge the gap between strategy and execution.
Lean Management
Lean is a Performance Excellence methodology that strives to make both manufacturing and transactional business processes faster and more efficient. Lean practitioners are adept at identifying and eliminating “non-value-added” process steps – wasteful activities that don’t add value to the end product or service, and which customers, if given the choice, would not pay for.
Six Sigma
Six Sigma began as a set of tools to reduce product defects and improve quality. Over the years, however, it has become a system for driving improvement at every level of the business. The list of companies that have used Six Sigma is enormous and spans every industry from manufacturing to healthcare, utilities to service-based organizations.
