Lean Leadership Institute a Leader in Lean Leadership Education and Training Resources

(PRWEB) July 2, 2008 -- Bellingham, Washington training association Lean Leadership Institute (http://www.lli5s.org) is taking companies throughout the world from the red to the black in incredible timeframes, with a current average annual benefit per Certified Lean Leader student project of $44,400.

The Lean Leadership Institute was created by Evergreen Team Concepts, a creative team development think-tank as one of their solutions to provide Lean education throughout the world with a main focus on Lean interwoven with leadership training. The Lean Leadership Institute is a certifying body, international association and a lean training provider.

Henry Beeland, program writer of the Lean Leadership (http://www.lli5s.org) certifications explains, "The end result of any successful Lean program should be identifiable and measurable increased customer satisfaction. While all Lean elements work to support this concept, sound leadership fundamentals and effective communications are paramount. Without these, Lean is nothing more than a great idea. "

The core of the Lean Leadership Institute is coursework and workplace projects that lead to certification. Four levels of certification have been developed: Lean Leader, Lean Instructor, Lean Mentor, and Certified Lean Organization. LLI offers on-going support and materials for students of Lean and Lean Organizations who seek to develop their capabilities and visual reinforcement for the work environment.

The Lean series of certifications is designed in a way to have your team leading their very own lean projects within a very short period of time. With a project-based focus to the Lean certifications you will see an immediate return on investment.

Mike Ridpath, Senior Manager of Products and Services states, "The programs we have created through the Lean Leadership Institute are truly unique with a focus on the three elements of Lean; structural, processes and philosophical while learning leadership characteristics and principles. Since taught in concept form whether you need Lean manufacturing, Lean distribution, Lean office, Lean healthcare or Lean accounting training, this is the program for you."

A great way to see if Lean is right for you and your organization is to come to a Lean Leadership Lunch. This lunch event is geared towards leaders and managers within companies wanting more information on Lean continuous process improvement structure, change implementation and philosophy. There will be materials distributed and an information-packed PowerPoint presentation on our approach to project-based Lean Leadership.

Lean Leadership Institute certification guarantees a greater ROI than the cost of the course or your money back. Lean Leadership Institute is taught onsite practically anywhere in the world.
