TRAINING & CERTIFICATION


 

 

WHY A GREEN BELT TRAINING?

Why should you learn to work building on proven methods?

It’s like recipes for Grandma’s good apple pie. Just not for great pie but for success.

Why should you pay so much money for a training? 

Because it’s proven, this training helps you safe 8 times more money than it has cost. Already in the first year. It’s by the measurements of our clients. 

You ask yourself whether you really need statistical methods to solve all your problems? 

You don’t! But understanding data-based approaches feels like having the eyes of an eagle and the strength of a bear.

THIS IS WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TOLD US

 

I really appreciated the thoroughness and engagement that Matthias maintained throughout the entire course!

 

 

Matthias is an engaging instructor who encourages us to ask questions. The way he starts each session by going over the previous session with us asking questions in teams is really helpful.

 

 

The training was great. I liked the learn by doing approach as opposed to the death by PowerPoint presentation style.

 

 

For me this has been the best training so far. I really liked that theory was presented through the game and the discussions. Arvid, Bravo!

 

 

This project will be a huge contribution for our team to meet our capacity ramp up in this area to 14 sides [per day] by the end of the year!

 

 

[The team] took an idea and made it into reality in such a shockingly small amount of time. It’s really insane how fast it was. This project is going to be what is needed to have a little breathing room…thank you.

 

 

I love the activities we are doing. Being put into breakout rooms and applying what we are learning helps me a lot.

 

 

I liked the examples in the Poka Yoke presentation, where you were able to experience the benefit yourself.

PROJECT COACHING?

In the last 20 years we have experienced that Green Belts benefit so much from having a good coach at hand. After the Green Belt has learned about so many new methods the coach will help him to practically work according to the new approach.
 

  • ...select good metrics,
  • ...apply methods in a good and target oriented way,
  • ...manage internal difficulties with team or sponsor,
  • ...plan workshops with you.

You will practically learn for life. 

It depends on your project how much support you need. Some projects need a lot of coaching support at the beginning, others more towards the end. Typically, 6-10 sessions are needed per project, lasting about 30 to 60 minutes.

If you do not have a Black Belt or Master Black Belt available in your organization we are happy to offer you coaching support. For this, we arrange appointments with you as needed – online.

You would like to discuss this option? Feel free to contact us!
