OpEx Councils aren’t your average peer group think tanks. They focus on action and results – helping your organization rapidly improve operational effectiveness and efficiency to meet today’s challenges, while also setting the stage for sustained high performance well into the future.
Membership opens the door to a unique and powerful collaborative environment. You become part of a highly functioning team of operations and improvement leaders from non-competing businesses, meeting monthly to confidentially tackle real issues, develop practical solutions, and hold each other accountable for results – All under the expert guidance of a professional facilitator, equipped with deep real-world experience and knowledge of the latest and most proven Operational Excellence concepts, tools, and methods.
The objective is your organization’s success – today and tomorrow.
Each OpEx Council is comprised of 6 - 10 top operations and continuous improvement leaders from regional, non-competing organizations. Service, transactional or manufacturing - all types are represented. Monthly group collaborations in confidential settings, ongoing deployment support and one-on-one coaching are distinctly results-oriented. Members benefit from expert guidance, team support, platforms for sharing challenges and best practices, and access to additional best-in-class training at a reasonable cost. Working together, members lead their organizations to higher performance, lower cost structures, increased profitability, better alignment with customer needs, accelerated speed-to-market, and greater agility and resilience in responding to ever-changing market conditions.
