- You directly support client Idea owners, providing technical and analytical support to ensure improvement ideas are successful
- You recognize when ideas are under or over-performing relative to expectations and you’re the primary source for validating the benefit stream generated by these ideas.
- You draw on and develop your leadership skills to help build the client organization’s “wiring”, to ensure the improvement effort is sustained by a culture of continuous improvement; by doing this, you ensure that our methodology becomes part of way your client does business, long after the engagement is finished
