Synopsis:
Enable Your Workers … and You’ll Be Amazed At What They Can Do
Do
you know anyone who spends time during the workday fighting obstacles
that get in the way of them doing their jobs? It could be processes that
aren’t optimized, poor tools, team members who aren’t right for the
job, managers who are reminiscent of the pointed-hair boss on Dilbert,
or a host of other reasons. Solving that is going to be the focus of our
April 18th meeting.
It’s
been about 12 years since Bob Jarvis last presented at NY SPIN
(Experiences Combining Extreme Programming (XP) with Six Sigma and
CMMI), which he gave several months before he moved to Delaware, and
we’re glad to have him back.
This
time, he will be discussing something else which he’s passionate about –
unlocking the potential of workers by removing the obstacles that get
in the way of them doing their best work. Clearly this is partially a
process issue, but there are several other key dimensions that also need
to be addressed.
In
this interactive session, Bob will provide a high-level walk-through of
a framework to identify the real symptoms, an approach to presenting
the results to management so they “get it,” and an implementation cycle
to fix the root causes. For those who want to learn more, the details
are available on his blog.
