Seminar Description

This seminar will explore how managers approach the process of change and guide them through a systematic analysis of how to accelerate real and rapid performance improvement. This dynamic hands-on and interactive learning experience will establish the numerous similarities between Rapid Performance Improvement and a Two-Minute Drill in American football. This parallel creates a powerful metaphor for leaders to make successful change happen faster. Managers will explore their role as “quarterbacks” in the change process. Participants will learn how to create a sense of urgency and importance around their next improvement initiative and how to conduct an effective scouting report on their opponents that they will face in their change efforts. This transformational experience will help leaders come to the realization that celebrating success and conducting post-change analyses is paramount to creating a culture conducive to rapid organizational improvement. This program is not just about equipping leaders to compete in the game of change but is about winning this contest! NO SPECTATORS ALLOWED!
