This interactive, hands-on course equips you with the essential lean concepts you need to know to improve your company beyond software development.

This includes innovation and portfolio management, project approval processes, deployment, production support, sales and service.The course enables you to take a holistic view at your organisation’s processes. You will learn how to improve quality and productivity and reduce time-to-market and cost. You will leave the course with concrete improvement steps for your own organisation.
