Is the performance of your organisation steadily improving?
When problems crop up, do they get solved effectively, once-and-for-all, at the root cause?
When your teams come together to solve a problem, do they follow a structured, effective approach… all pulling in the right direction?
The world’s best organisations aren’t problem free. In any organisation mistakes happen, stuff ups can and absolutely do occur. What’s different about leading organisations, is how they react when a problem occurs and how they learn from it.
Toyota has achieved tremendous, consistent success for decades. It has maintained its position at (or close to) the top of its industry because they do things differently. One of the most important things that Toyota does differently is how it solves problems.
Effective problem solving has been a fundamental driver of success for Toyota and a key pillar for any organisation working towards Operational Excellence.

Your Presenter Damien Lacey
Toyota's 8 Step Problem Solving Approach is one of the key behaviours that sets it apart from other organisations. It continually drives teams to think deeply and laterally when solving issues.
Learn the secret to this approach in this workshop. The session will be practical, allowing participants to work together to apply the method to a number of case study examples.

” It was a well run and organised event with the right amount of content.
I found the 5 why’s to analyse the root cause of a problem very interesting. Also the method of breaking down the problem, observing and gathering data was particularly relevant.
I would go one step further than highly recommending anyone to attend future events and recommend engaging OE Partners to optimise and improve your bottom line. ”

“ The session was very informative and well structured. There were good simple examples used that may the session engaging.
The most interesting part was the problem break down and use of 5 whys. It was good to highlight how sometimes teams don’t go deep enough to understand the true root cause.
I’m currently working to apply these methods with my teams, so it was a timely session. I’d strongly recommend this session to others ”

” It was an excellent event, the right length of time with good interaction and engagement.
The method shown was somewhat similar to DMAIC but focussed on problem solving. It’s a great way to get people to apply lean principles in their day to day, straight away (without waiting to do a green belt).
TIn particular I like how the presenter showed the importance of coming up with a good problem statement
Would I recommend others attend future OE Partners events? YES! ”
