Continuous improvement is a journey that becomes successful with cultural change in an organization. At Swegon North America, we have come a long way to shift the culture towards a continuous improvement culture, and we’d like to keep the momentum going. As an integral part of this overall shift, we are conducting Continuous Improvement Awareness training sessions for all employees.
The content of the training focuses on introductory topics regarding Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma Tools. We have a growing number of Six Sigma Green Belts in the company, and they are active in running CIT projects in addition to larger ESP projects that are happening simultaneously. Any employee is eligible to be included in these projects as a subject matter expert, so it’s essential that we all speak the same language as team members when working on these improvement projects.
