Many organizations invest a great deal of effort into greater integration with their customers and suppliers. However, relatively little effort has gone into breaking down internal company “silos,†which can prevent even the most well designed process improvement initiatives from succeeding.
In this webinar, author Mark McGregor discusses the obstacles to successfully implementing and maintaining a continuous improvement culture and recommends steps to achieve improved alignment and collaboration across teams and divisions. He is joined by co-presenter, Thierry Tastet, (LinkedIn profile) BPA Expert at OpenText, who will provide insight into how a software solution like OpenText’s ProVision can help achieve joined up thinking for a more connected enterprise.
In this webinar:
- Understand the types of “Siloed†thinking, and the risks associated with them
- Learn how quickly a holistic view can be used to break down barriers to change
- See how with the right approach, operational managers take centre stage
- Explore the role that software can play in helping to overcome silos
Presenter: Mark McGregor (LinkedIn profile) is author of the bestseller of Thinking of… People-centric Process Management? Ask the Smart Questions
