Improving effectiveness with people and data
Strong analyst, communicator and coach, who drives performance and quality improvement (Lean, 6-sigma) with a sound background in manufacturing and food industry.
Making complex issues understandable energises me: describing processes so that performance becomes clear to all stakeholders, getting agreement on how well it could also perform and then making that happen is a wonderful thing to do.
I've been a teacher in many roles and passionate about helping others along the continuous improvement journey.
Operational Excellence consultant
Let me help you to find the wastes in your operation, define realistic savings potential and set the correct KPI's and improvement efforts to achieve those savings.
All linked to fully cover your P&L, because you don't want your CI team to celebrate their great savings project while your overall business results are still way below target.
Trainer and speaker
I love to share any of the CI topics from my videos with a larger audience - be it a training or a speaking event; in-company, online or for a large audience.
My experience with training groups is extensive and I'd be happy to design a training program that fits your needs. Participant engagement is key for successful trainings, so the style of a live training is always more interactive than a video, also when the training is online.
Online teaching
Much of my online teaching is available absolutely free - I've been publishing videos to YouTube at least weekly since the summer of 2020. It was hard to find good continuous improvement and Lean content at that time, so I decided to at least share my experience and give to the CI community.
In the fall of 2022 the first paid online course became available, and more will follow to fill a performance excellence academy over time.
