Marketing With A3

Marketing with A3 – Short Program

Posted onAuthorbusiness901

(2) One-hour Sessions on Consecutive Days

When most Lean Organizations try to introduce Lean to sales and marketing they seldom take the time to develop Lean Thinking. They first start trying to apply the tools of Lean or trying to build a culture of Lean. It is a very difficult thing to do. Using the A3 Thinking Process gives a systemic way of implementing Lean Thinking in Sales and Marketing. Through the A3 tool mindset, you learn to think in Lean terms. However, the process cannot be just a fill in the box exercise, it has to be practiced. In this program learn how to…

  1. Be able to create and use A3s in Sales and Marketing for problem-solving, discovering opportunities and sustaining implementations.
  2. Iterate within and with multiple A3s.
  3. Transverse the Marketing Gateway of SDCA-PDCA-EDCA.

You are expected to have a basic knowledge of an A3. If not, I recommend Jamie Flinchbaugh’s eBook, A3 Problem Solving: Applying Lean Thinking. You can find it on Amazon for $7.50. Consider it a pre-requisite for the course. The course consists of 2 one-hour sessions on consecutive days. In addition to the A3 program, you will receive a complimentary PDF download of the Marketing with Lean Book Series and over 20 different A3 templates in PDF and Excel format.
