Lean Management Symposium

“MANAGING PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT IN 2009"

Thursday December 17, 2009 - Minneapolis

Savvy is a consortium of product development engineering leaders. Savvy offers a timely symposium for product development engineering leaders to address the questions:

How are product development engineering leaders getting their arms around this economic uncertainty? What tools are they implementing? What initiatives do they have underway to:
1. Implement product cost reductions for long-term financial viability.

2. Eliminate waste in order to do meet schedules with fewer resources and constrained budgets.

3. Continuously engage technical knowledge workers to improve their performance quality.

4. Ensure continued flow in the product development pipeline.

5. Implement “Knowledge based” lean product development.

This is a “must attend” symposium for individuals who do want to benchmark the initiatives of others. Leaders know that they cannot engage their people, projects and processes in isolation given the uncertainty.

Plan to get answers and implement useful knowledge about how others address changing management expectations, customer value expectations and simultaneously implement change.

The symposium content will draw on the results of the Savvy Chicago symposium in March.
