Products and Services
Accelerate delivers practical management development and business improvement products & services:
Lean Management Thinking Programme
Since 2003, Accelerate has delivered the Lean Management Thinking Programme which is a national product for Scotland. The programme delivers tangible productivity improvements to participating companies.
Change Management for Senior Management Teams
This is designed for each company but begins with an initial appraisal of the organisation and how it is dealing with its competitive environment. Psychometric testing is often used to help managers understand more about their leadership styles and approaches to managing others. A series of workshops can then be delivered to address the practical problems of translating strategy into meaningful actions and then the motivating and performance management of change projects that involve the wider workforce. We always seek to run this programme alongside a real change project to allow Managers to put new skills into practice. Programmes can vary in duration according to client needs.
In-House Lean Deployment Projects
Developed specifically for individual companies, this project aims to deliver agreed process improvement targets linked to business objectives. Typical projects will focus on reducing leadtimes, improving quality, improving performance to customers, generating more capacity and improving workplace organisation. Most of these projects involve more than one project area and aim to deliver sustainable change to working practices and behaviours (changing the company culture).
