His department head, let’s call her Amanda, turned out to be an exceptional support for Jeremy and for their Lean Six Sigma projects. She made sure that Jeremy had access to all data necessary.
After each Lean Six Sigma session, all participants had to apply on their own data what they had learned.
Years later, when the whole organisation went through a Strategic Workforce Planning project, Jeremy turned out to be the best internal resource to have when preparing and running this project.
Not only was he able to help us with his institutional knowledge to find the most suitable way for data collection, analysis etc. He also led this effort for a number of departments in an excellent way.
