MANAGEMENT LECTURES

 

 

Darnetta Clinkscale RRT, MBA

 

Something extra special for managers this year!
FOCUS presents its special, 4 hour workshop on the revolutionary, Lean/Six Sigma Management System/Philosophy which will be presented
in its entirety by Darnetta Clinkscale RRT MBA, nationally renowned department director, author and lecturer.
Managers of all types and disciplines will learn the concepts of Lean/Six Sigma during this in-depth, highly interactive workshop.
As a result, manager-attendees will be able to take home tools to implement the system immediately in their own department so as to begin
streamlining processes, increasing employee satisfaction, improving finances and most importantly in the case of medicine, enhancing patient care.
Lean Six Sigma is a breakthrough business excellence philosophy, a business revolution that continues to challenge the thinking of executives, managers and employees alike, in tens of thousands of businesses and organizations of all types throughout the world.
A unique combination of business leadership plus quality and process improvement tools/techniques make it possible for leaders
to implement strategies that have direct bottom line impact. This special presentation is not to be missed.
