Rummler Brache

Introduction:
This program prepares participants to implement a newly designed process using Phase 3 of the world-class Rummler-Brache methodology and tools. Our proven approach for applying this powerful methodology is documented in an electronic format as part of the course materials. Workshop graduates can immediately begin to apply the methodology, tools, and techniques to significantly improve the way new processes are implemented in their organizations.

Program Format:
Participants work in small teams to apply the methodology and tools in a closely monitored, case-driven environment. They practice and receive feedback on the skills/techniques needed to facilitate a project team from the completion of the newly designed process through the planning and execution of a successful implementation.
