Courseaddresses costsandcashflow

LOCAL Enterprise Office Wicklow is currently taking expressions of interest in a management development course which is due to take place in November.

The ‘Lean for Microbusiness’ programme is set to take place on November 30 at a venue still to be decided.

Lean is about doing things better, which in turn makes a business more profitable. Lean is shorthand for focusing on effectiveness and efficiency across all areas of a business. It works most effectively where it is a fundamental part of the business strategy and not just ‘using some tools’.

Local Enterprise Office Wicklow runs the Lean for Micro programme to assist a select number of established local businesses to introduce and implement lean work practices in their business. The programme looks at costs, cashflow, operational processes, lead times and discusses how waste affects both profit and customer satisfaction.

The programme comprises of a five half-days with an experienced Lean Consultant from the Enterprise Ireland Lean Panel and vetted by LEO Wicklow and onsite meetings at your business at times and dates of your choosing.

A small participation fee will apply. The programme has run successfully for the past two years delivering significant benefit to LEO clients. Visit www.localenterprise.ie/Wicklow/ to book
