The world is changing rapidly. Both for businesses and their customers. COVID-19, stay-at-home orders, the internet and its myriad of choices has now brought the need for businesses to change the way they work to accommodate changing customer needs and to stay in business to the forefront. On top of that, workers expectations are also changing. Not interested in just ‘working for a paycheck’ anymore, employees today expect to find safely, fulfillment, joy and purpose through work. Put it all together and these changes mean that companies that want to flourish, thrive and grow for the future need to change the way they manage their business, interact with their customers and treat their employees.
In the Toyota Way to Service Excellence Masterclass, you’ll learn how to do just that. From a theoretical point of view, through the six course modules, you’ll develop an understanding of the 4Ps and 17 principles of The Toyota Way to Service Excellence (Lean in services). For real change to occur, however, theory must be put into practice. To do this, you’ll complete a real-life, hands-on guided-learning project, which you’ll work on throughout the class. By the end of the course you’ll have gained practical experience creating the ways to work that will satisfy customers, engage employees and add value to every business, now and forever!
