Overview
In a notable partnership with Verisk Analytics, our consultancy was engaged to establish a robust Lean Six Sigma (LSS) Training program. Our mandate was to develop both Yellow Belt and Green Belt training modules. Harnessing a combination of classroom sessions and eLearning modules, and complemented by change management techniques, our goal was to empower Verisk Analytics’ team with the tools necessary for continuous improvement.
Areas of Strategic Focus
Yellow Belt Training Development: Our objective was to lay down the foundational concepts of Lean Six Sigma, ensuring participants comprehended the essential methodologies for continuous improvement.
Green Belt Training Development: Building upon the basics, the Green Belt training aimed to equip participants with a deeper understanding of LSS tools, preparing them for more intricate process improvement projects.
Classroom Training: Recognizing the importance of hands-on learning, classroom sessions were designed to provide interactive, in-depth exploration of LSS principles.
eLearning Modules: To offer flexibility and cater to diverse learning preferences, we developed eLearning modules, ensuring knowledge accessibility regardless of location or time constraints.
Change Management: Beyond mere knowledge impartation, we integrated change management techniques to ensure the effective application of LSS principles within Verisk Analytics’ operational framework.
Challenge
Developing an effective training program for a company like Verisk Analytics demanded more than just theoretical content. The challenge was to instill, inspire, and ensure the practical application of Lean Six Sigma principles in a manner that resonates with the organization’s ethos and operational landscape.
Strategic Approach
With a structured curriculum in place, we blended traditional classroom training with eLearning modules, offering a holistic learning experience. This was further complemented by change management strategies, ensuring not just knowledge absorption but also its effective translation into tangible operational improvements.
Impact & Outcome
The training program’s success was evident in Verisk Analytics’ subsequent strategic decisions. A year post our engagement, Verisk Analytics inaugurated their internal LSS team, taking the mantle to further the training and realize measurable benefits, a testament to the foundation and momentum our partnership provided.
