Career Builder: Process Improvement - Seven Management and Planning Tools

Process Improvement (PI) is a business strategy that produces measurable results by focusing on opportunities within an organization to improve, simplify, and integrate work processes and procedures. Every function within an organization is accomplished utilizing processes – sequences of operations that turn supplies, labor, and information into outputs or services.

It has been demonstrated in numerous organizations that processes developed synergistically are better crafted and more comprehensive than those created by one individual. As teams develop processes together and utilize the tools presented, they find value in making processes visible and in increasing the understanding of both the process and the thinking behind it. In addition, developing processes that incorporate team members’ input generate greater team buy-in and support.

When used individually, the Seven Management and Training Tools provide an organized way of thinking and making decisions. When used in combination with each other, these tools provide a powerful answer to how teams can respond effectively to issues that have the potential for creating confusion and chaos.

Give your team the basis to solve problems through effective critical thinking skills, and implement effective solutions with greater success!
