Operational Excellence Leadership Training

TEAM 4 - All set and energized!!!

We've had a great opportunity to attend the Third Asia Operational Excellence Training in Singapore this week.  You can see the picture of our team above proudly showing our "This is Me" masterpieces, together with our team facilitator Francisco.  At the end of the week, we were asked to create an artifact to represent the insights from what we have learned throughout the week.  Every end of the day, we were asked to jot in our reflections/learnings into our training handbook (journal time). And so, we thought of putting together these insights into this blog!

The training touched several topics throughout the week including personal leadership style, culture, strategy development, operational excellence and capability building, among many others, with senior leaders of the company as trainors and speakers. 

This is our team's recap of the highlights of what we have learned ...
