About this course
Is your Change Control system adding value or just cost, complexity and massive frustration!
- Is it simple enough to be described in a 2-3 page document?
- Can your system review and approve changes in less than 60 minutes?
- Does your system reject changes that add no value (usually about 40-50%)?
- Is your system the catalyst for continuous improvement?
- Are 100% of ‘approved’ changes implemented successfully?
The future of your company depends on, amongst other things, your ability to manage change quickly and efficiently. We will show you how.
This short one-day course presents a golden opportunity to come and share your experiences (and even frustrations) if you are directly or indirectly involved with managing change.
