This is an online training to become a Lean Daily Improvement Facilitator. The Lean Daily Improvement Facilitator understands how to make small but meaningful daily adjustments to how we work and behave in order to move or hold a metric. Lean Daily Improvement (LDI) is useful for making systematic small-step changes while work is being done, and sustaining the gains that have been made through other change efforts. LDI builds a team-based, continuous improvement habit at the point of service.
