Achieving World-Class Performance:
How
to transition from traditional management to Lean Six Sigma management ___________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________ Declining reimbursement, cost increases, labor shortages, increased competition and, ultimately, a lower return on investment-sound familiar? These are just some of the issues your lab struggles with every day. And you’re not alone. Lab managers industry-wide are dealing with these very same concerns. You’ve probably tried traditional cost-cutting measures and found that they’re just not doing enough for your bottom line. So what’s the solution? Many labs are considering a Lean Six Sigma management philosophy, which helps eliminate waste and significantly reduce your costs. But how do you know where to start? Why are these management philosophies so compelling, especially now? And how do you know if it’s right for your lab?
You and your team will gain a better understanding of just how much waste there is in most service organizations, including hospitals and laboratories. Then, you’ll learn how to find that waste in your lab, and what steps to take to get rid of it for good. Listen as two experts on Lean Six Sigma-Susan Stegall and Leslie Sprick-provide you with information to help your lab transition from a traditional management philosophy to one using Lean Six Sigma. Drawing on their considerable experience in the field, Susan and Leslie will provide you with tips and techniques for reducing waste, improving turnaround times, decreasing medical errors and saving you money.

And don’t forget about our interactive question-and-answer session where you can hear the answers to specific questions similar to your lab's situation, so make sure all your team members are listening with you.
