Solving the Measurement Nightmare
Thursday, February 16, 2012 - Ames, Iowa
Solve the Measurement Nightmare
Today's competitive environment requires that companies distinguish themselves in the marketplace using factors other than price. The techniques presented in this workshop can help your company attain unprecedented growth in return on investment and sales.

Debra Smith, cofounder and partner of CMG (Constraints Management Group), will present the workshop. A dynamic and captivating speaker, Smith has been featured at events throughout North America, Europe, and Africa. She will show you how to identify the "push"-based tactics, including the accounting, financial, and incentive measurements, that are roadblocks to improved "flow" and replace them with the new "pull"-based rules, tools, and measurement systems.


You will also
  • Learn the "truth" about the "sacred cows" and the innovative yet practical approaches every organization must understand and implement to succeed as a "pull"-based "demand driven" system;
  • Learn the six key metrics and their signals to allow all of the links in the chain to behave in a way that maximizes the total system effectiveness and the bottom line;
  • Learn how to integrate the best of the theory of constraints, lean, and six sigma inside a "demand driven" system; and
  • Learn lessons from companies who have made the journey from "push"-based and "cost accounting driven" tactics, rules, and tools to "pull"-based and "demand driven" tactics, rules, and tools.
