Our value proposition - Your RoadMap to Lean
Preparing for change
Building the foundation for your future
‘Go
and see’ where you are today & where
you want to go
Before starting to train you and your people on the essential Lean tools, we will together assess your current situation and define the purpose of the changes ahead.
During this phase we define where to start, where to go and how to get there. Once completed you will have:
- an understanding of what Lean is and how to lead lean
- a clear communication plan
- a step by step itinerary for your Lean journey
- a change team who will lead the teams on this new journey
Now your team understands the purpose of the changes ahead and can shift to the new way of looking at things.
Knowledge transfer
Building
a learning culture to
see the ‘as-is’
Now as everyone is aware and is ready for the next step, we will start to share knowledge based on experience. Our Lean tool trainings are focused on learning based on practical experiments. Some theory is required, at the same time the key to anchoring the newly learned methodoligies is to practice them within the familiar environemtn of your activity.
Our unique training tool concept 'Learning Differently' is based on real life work environment modelisation, where your teams will enjoy learning and consequently sharing their newly aquired knowledge.
Our training tools can be adapted to any given environment, by simulating your process environment with miniature machines, racks, products and more.
Our objective is to change your and your people's way of looking at the way things have been done so far. As of now, Lean waste will be your focus and everyone within your organisation will have the same vision.
Embarking on Lean
Building your future on a
solid foundation
Having integrated the new vision to eliminate Lean waste, you and your teams will as of now continuously & effortlessly identify new areas of improvement.
To underline and solidify your new culture, we will assist you to maintain the right momentum within the never ending PDCA (Plan Do Check Adjust) cycle. At any given moment, when you face a new situation, where new Lean tools may be needed, we will be there to once more share our experience so that you will always have the right methodoligies as and when appropriate. There is no point of learning a large number of tools, that you may even never need. So step by step you will integrate incremental knowledge and progess.

Learning Differently
Pragmatic & easy to understand
To create an engaging atmoshpere, we have developped a series of Lean games using unique tools.
Participants will immediately be thrown back into their early experiences of playing, and as a consequence learn the various Lean tools and ways to observe the environment in an enjoyable and relaxing fashion.
There are no rules, but only experiences from which your teams will develop an in depth understanding of Lean thinking and the related tools.
Customised tools
What can be more fascinating than seeing the real environment in a miniature world.
With our customisable tools, we can reproduce your specific industrial environment with its equipment and flows as models, that can be touched, amended, improved and even maybe removed. We call the this prototyping gamification.
Anything that in reality may seem as an unsurmountable hurdle, can be experimented in a model world.
All-In
You don't have to worry about anything.
We will identify together your needs and requirements, and all the materials will be adapted to get your teams under way on your collective Lean journey.
Let your teams lead the way to a promising and successful future.

Our Values
Honesty
Honesty is our first and foremost attribute we belive in.
Only with total transparency you can achieve conditionless participation of all involved stakeholders. As soon as your teams can put aside all worries of being played or used for someone other's benefit, everyone will give everything in their ability to make progress together.
Honesty drives confidence
Respect
No matter at what level you are within the organisation, your input is key to the future.
A company's culture is driven by leadership and how the majority behaves as a consequence.
Respect is especially being practiced top-down, only then teams do feel valued and part of something bigger.
Respect drives trust
Engagement
We do believe in what we do. Our conviction is that every organisation has opportunities to grow through inherent knowledge and creativity.
Once you get your team to share their views, and you are attentively taking them seriously, you are creating an orgnaically growing engagement, which will drive your business further than you may have ever dared to believe.
Engagement grows business

"When aiming for the horizon, you aim for the future, so you better be ready for what it may bring."
Michael Schroeger
After more than 20 years of professional experience within the industrial sector, Michael decided to share his experience with organisations which are ready and willing to change.
His experience in working with global leaders within the bluechip market, has enabled him to live through the life-cycles of multiple product launches and market-changing initiatives.
The constant thrive for optimisation and aiming for perfection through his Lean Six Sigma Black Belt methodology was one of his 'passions'; today, it is his 'conviction' that change for the better is possible to create stable and continuously improving working environments, where the term 'people are our capital' are not just only fashionable words, but a living system where everyone aims for the same:
a common safe future.
