The Shingo Institute Welcomes Leg Up Solutions as a New Provider of Shingo Workshops
February 6, 2020 – the Shingo Institute
Logan, Utah— The Shingo Institute, a program of the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University, has partnered with Leg Up Solutions, LLC to become one of the Institute’s newest Shingo Licensed Affiliates. This partnership means that Leg Up Solutions will teach the Shingo workshops to groups and individuals interested in improving the culture of their organization to improve efficiency, working conditions, and value.
“We are very excited to have Leg Up Solutions as a new affiliate partner,” Ken Snyder, executive director of the Shingo Institute, said. “They are an exceptional company devoted to principles of operational excellence and, together, we hope to help many other companies on their continuous improvement journeys.”
About Leg Up Solutions
Leg Up Solutions is a consultancy dedicated to helping organizations realize enterprise excellence. The inspiration for Leg Up Solutions comes from a quote by Stephen Jay Gould, a Harvard professor and world-renowned evolutionary biologist: “I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain, than I am in the certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in the cotton fields and sweatshops.” This translates exceptionally well to the Leg Up Solutions’ tagline “find the BRILLIANCE in your WORK FORCE” and motto “We don’t train people…We develop leaders you didn’t know you had.”
Leg Up Solutions’ style pulls enterprise excellence from the shop floor and into the workshop, study tour, or site visit, and delivers an unparalleled learning experience that anchors concepts through the power of experience and reflection. The process in each case is designed to challenge participants in an extremely safe learning environment.
