6-month Program with Lean Expert
In a first for Bahrain, your company has the opportunity to experience a kaizen improvement journey with one of the world’s leading lean manufacturing consulting firms.
In collaboration with our partner EMIC, Shinka Management is excited to bring to Bahrain Juan Bertero, a lean consultant that covered Manufacturing Manager and Production Engineering Manager roles spanning over a decade with Toyota first-tier supplier DENSO and has over 20-years-experience deploying lean manufacturing within industry across multiple continents.
Over the course of six months, Juan will help your company develop its lean leadership capability whilst guiding you through an improvement implementation project specific to your operations. Participating companies will benefit from an initial three-day master class on lean fundamentals, on-site and online support, as well as sharing of learnings and outcomes with other participating companies.
Program Overview
Training Component
The program commences in March 2023 with a shared training event. Up to three participants from your company will be introduced to the fundamental thinking required for a leader within a lean manufacturing organisation. The three-day program will provide them with a genuine understanding of kaizen, lean manufacturing and the Toyota Production System, enabling them to implement and sustain a kaizen culture.
On-Site Implementation Support
Over the length of the program Shinka Management Senior Consultant Juan Bertero will spend four days supporting your company on-site with setting the direction, focus and target for your kaizen activity – and coaching you through a full cycle of improvement. Between on-site visits in Bahrain, an online progress meeting will be held with Juan to provide support and advice in keeping efforts on track to achieve your kaizen target.
Developing People
A key objective of kaizen is to develop people. This program will touch all levels of your company from top management to operator level. The employees you select to be the participants of the initial training will take part in a unique journey of insight and discovery never previously available in Bahrain.
Learning from Others
The program encourages your company to share your kaizen journey with up to four other participating companies within the same learning group. This culminates with a presentation event in August to share and celebrate your successes.
