Course Overview

When cost reduction without quality loss is unclear, people default to protecting their own function. The hardest part of quality loss is rarely deciding — it is holding the decision when it becomes unpopular. Most organisations already have a policy on this aspect of organisational leadership; far fewer can show it working. The programme converts cost reduction without quality loss from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this part of organisational leadership, in large organisations and small ones alike. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what quality loss has actually achieved. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of cost reduction without quality loss and supervised application. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better quality loss is rarely technical. The programme ends where implementation begins, with the wider organisational leadership agenda broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
