Lean Society Summit 2011

Lean Society Summit 2011
Friday, June 17, 2011

Fiera di Vicenza 20th-21st September

 

Lean Society Summit has placed the economy and the Italians, who live at a critical juncture and need major changes at all levels, temporarily at a crucial phase. 

Companies, especially small and medium-sized, must find new energy and new resources to compete, making their management more efficient and rigorous.
Public companies and public administrations, particularly health and educational, should focus on reducing waste and identification of what value for citizens is, resulting in a short time dramatic performance improvements.
The institutions, the political system and individuals themselves must change their behavior, by rewriting the everyday life rules to keep up with the momentous challenges that emerge from a globalized world, uncertain, crossed by unpredictable changes and constraints.
 
The Summit will bring together leading members of the Lean universe: interventions in the plenary will be entrusted to Daniel T. Jones and John Y. Shook, Director of the Lean Enterprise Academy UK, respectively, and the Lean Enterprise Institute USA, i.e. the two main international references for the development and dissemination of Lean management.
It is also expected the exceptional presence of Jim Womack, to support the launch of the Italian edition of his latest book, Gemba Walks, and of  many of the institutes representatives affiliated to the Lean Global Network. In the days following the Lean Summit Society, CUOA will host the Executive Board Meeting of the Lean Global Network, Annual Meeting of strategy and comparison between the various members of the LGN, which will make our actual center "heart" of the Lean world.
