Zero Defects Leadership

Overview

This programme is focused on practical working and discussion to support the drive to Zero Defects in the design and manufacturing workplace and wider supply chain. The challenge of making sure that our processes are always ‘on target’ with ‘minimum variation’ is a key aspect of achieving our target of Zero Defects.

Leadership must ensure that we create systems that enable the achievement of Zero Defects; display behaviours that help create an environment where the drive for Zero Defects is the norm; and coach their teams in the core technical tools.

 

Course objectives:

  • Provide the context for the Drive for Zero Defects journey.
  • Demonstrate the key Zero Defects tools
  • Enable leaders to ask the right questions to establish the current state and build the business case for quality.
  • Commit to leading the Zero Defect programme and lead by example
