  • "We started using Lean tools, like many others, but we struggled to keep the momentum and our people engaged. If you want to get to the next level, then the Shingo courses will help you make it happen."
  • "I have attend all five of the previous workshops as face-to-face (F2F). This last one, taken virtually, was surprisingly just as enriching. I would offer that once you have had a foundation built by the previous workshops via F2F, one can just as easily extract the same with a virtual BUILD EXCELLENCE workshop."
  • "The DISCOVER EXCELLENCE workshop was truly an eye-opening experience for me. The facilitators did an outstanding job of creating an environment with rich learning experiences and fostering great discussions. I can't wait to attend the next workshop."
  • "We've been using the Lean tools for many years, but we haven't focused on systems as a whole. The SYSTEMS DESIGN workshop helped me to understand how to define a good system and how to use system maps to improve communication with my team. I feel I am a better coach after taking this workshop."
  • "DISCOVER EXCELLENCE was one of the most memorable courses I have attended because of the underlying content, the examples, the case study, and the way in which the facilitator led the sessions. I am now super keen to learn more."
Shingo Workshops
Taught in Arabic, Bahasa, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Malay, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Sinhala, Spanish, Thai, Turkish, and Ukrainian.
Learn more about how the Shingo Model can drive your culture toward organizational excellence by attending the Shingo workshop series, which includes six workshops. The first workshop in the series, DISCOVER EXCELLENCE, is a prerequisite and provides the foundational understanding of the Shingo Model and the 10 Shingo Guiding Principles. The second workshop is SYSTEMS DESIGN and teaches foundational understanding of what constitutes a system, how to map it, and how to make certain it improves continuously. The following three workshops — CULTURAL ENABLERS, CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT and ENTERPRISE ALIGNMENT — can be taken in any order. These workshops take participants deeper into the Shingo Model and provide a more profound understanding of the ideal behaviors necessary to achieve ideal results within an organization. BUILD EXCELLENCE is the capstone workshop that takes all the detailed learnings from the previous five Shingo workshops and teaches participants how to build systems that drive behavior that will consistently deliver desired results.

Attendees comment on their Shingo training experience.
Leaders quickly find that Lean tools such as Six Sigma, jidoka, SMED, 5S, JIT, quality circles, etc., are not independently capable of effecting lasting change. Since 1988 we’ve seen firsthand how quickly tool-based organizations decline in their ability to sustain results. On the other hand, organizations that anchor their improvement initiatives to principles — or understand the “why” behind the “how” and the “what” — experience significantly different results.

To best illustrate our findings, we developed the Shingo Model™, the accompanying Shingo Guiding Principles, and the Three Insights of Organizational Excellence. The six Shingo workshops are designed with the input of many seasoned instructors, leaders, and consultants to help you transform your organization's culture to one of continuous improvement and organizational excellence.
