Co-worker
What is your greatest strength?
Business to business communications with mass audiences using web technologies.
What are you working on?
I operate three global conferences all relating to lean manufacturing principles. The Lean Accounting Summit draws more than 500 high level finance and operations executives from some of the world's largest corporations. The Training Within Industry Summit draws more than 300 lean practitioners and training professionals and seeks to re-introduce this proven program used during WWII and still used today at Toyota. The most recent venture is the Lean and Green Summit which seeks to teach corporations how to apply lean principles (principles they're already using) to address environmental issues.

Hi Dwayne, Thanks for the info about the Summit. I hope you've been to the Subaru plant in Lafayette...We were invited for a tour, and I was completely astonished at what they do (and have been doing for quite some time!) There is an article about their zero landfill in the Jan/Feb issue of ILG...their RRR philosohy really worked for them. Have you been to Subaru?

Dwayne,
am really into all things environmental. I am trying to develop some criteria for our member plants to use to become more environmentally responsible. Your Lean and Green Summit sounds like it might have some nuggets of knowledge that I can start with. Would you be willing to share some of your knowledge?

Hi Dwayne,

Welcome to a fellow Cardinal! Be sure to join the Ball State alumni group. We're trying to help Troy Burk win tickets to this weekend's Colts playoff game.
