Lunch-n-Learn Series: Introduction to Last Planner System® (Ohio Valley CoP)
May 4, 2021 @ 11:30 am – 1:00 pm
Read more >>
This event, the first in a series of four, introduces the the Last Planner System® (LPS®), 5 levels of connected conversations. Participants will learn the benefits and key concepts of LPS, definition of Last Planner®, pull vs push methodology. Learning will include discussion of actual Last Planner implementation.
The Lunch-n-Learn series consists of facilitated, discussion-oriented events, each focused on a specific Lean subject matter. The format is more structured than a Lean Coffee, yet shorter and less structured than an LCI Education course. Its purpose is to provide enough knowledge base to kick start an engaging Lean discussion among the participants.
