The "Lean for Practitioners" training is an intensive and engaging workshop that allows you to understand Lean from the inside – from the perspective of a leader, engineer, or even an operator. This is not about textbook slogans, but concrete methods, tools, and exercises that participants apply in practice already during the training.
We teach how to identify waste, organize work, shorten lead times, and create better process flows. Our approach is based on Polish realities, implementation experiences, and proven simulation games.
If you want Lean to truly start working in your company – from day one – these workshops are for you.
✓ We translate theory into practice from the very first exercise
✓ We use proven simulations and real case studies
✓ We tailor the program to the specific needs of your company
✓ We conduct training with a focus on implementation, not just academic knowledge
✓ We demonstrate concrete tools and how to apply them on the shop floor
✓ A new level of work organization and improved process flows
✓ Teams ready to implement changes
✓ Less chaos and fewer “firefighting” situations
✓ Practical skills in process mapping and MUDA elimination
✓ A foundation for future improvement projects (kaizen, TPM, SMED)
Participants don’t just sit and take notes – they take action! We simulate processes, facilitate discussions based on real examples from manufacturing plants, analyze value stream maps, and draw conclusions together. Throughout the training, practical application is key, with the trainer guiding participants from diagnosis to solution.
By the end of the training, participants have a ready action plan and are capable of independently leading improvement activities in their areas.
🗨️ "Finally, someone showed us how to do it, not just talk about it."
🗨️ "Great simulations – I understood everything immediately."
🗨️ "The best Lean training I have ever attended. Concrete, practical, no fluff."
Do I need prior experience in Lean?
No – this is a beginner-level training focused on understanding and action.
Can I register a team from one department?
Yes – it’s a great opportunity to start implementing Lean together right after the training.
Does the training end with a certificate?
Yes – upon completion of the workshop, participants receive a personalized BE Partners certificat
Can the program be tailored to my industry?
Yes – before each training, we gather expectations and customize exercises and examples to fit the company’s profile.
