Looking to further your lean and continuous improvement journey and save money? Register for the 2017 AME International Conference in Boston by June 30. Depending on the number of registrations, you can save anywhere from $100 to $300 per person by registering before the deadline.
This year, our conference theme is “Get Engaged” and is designed to help organizations create a culture of engagement, where employees feel more empowered to act for the good of the team. This leads to improved efficiency and an increase in productivity and overall business performance.
The conference is highlighted by nine keynote speakers including lean experts John Shook and Paul Akers, Harvard University Professor of Psychology Daniel Gilbert, world-renowned mentalist Max Major, leadership expert David Marquet, Toyota Motor Manufacturing of Kentucky President and CEO Wil James and Boston Philharmonic Orchestra Conductor Benjamin Zander.
Witness lean and employee engagement in person at plant tours in the Boston area. Some of the organizations opening their doors include Bausch + Lomb, Cirtronics, New Balance, Pratt & Whitney and Thermo Fisher Scientific. Keep checking the Tours page for more additions.
