Follow-up less FAQ:  "What if the coaching exercises are not available in my preferred language?" ...  Just contact us directly at [email protected] explaining your situation, and we'll look for a solution.  We're continuing to grow our exercises to more languages as we expand our network of coaches! 

The lessons contain all the materials for the multiple coaching programs (Belts) described (Orange, Striped Orange, Yellow, Striped Yellow, Lime, Green, Striped Green, Striped Red, Light Blue, Blue, Purple, Brown, Black, and Striped Black). 

During the first Coaching Call we'll discuss and make sure you're taking the right path and guide you on the group of lessons (sub-modules) that don't apply to you so you can skip them.  You will still have access to all the other belts' specific lessons, so even if your role changes you'll be able to "adjust course". 

During the Simulation Calls, you get to choose what role to practice.  Most likely this will be your own role.  But you could also practice for the role you would like to get next in your career, or for the roles you coach others on.

We encourage learners to take all the lessons, but we understand if you have already received a lot of OpEx training some lessons won't be as valuable.  Therefore, we won't mandate you take every single lesson. You could decide by taking the knowledge and skills assessments, by reading the lesson summaries, or you could watch certain lessons at an increased playback speed.

2 answers... A) and B)...

A)  If you're going through it as a group package, yes.  Adults learn better by practicing, discussing, doing, teaching and coaching others.  The Simulation exercises provide an amazing learning experience, and the open-ended nature of the exercise relies on participants to go through the entire simulation.  Good news is that we would only schedule 1-2 hours maximum at one-time, and that you would be able to catch up in a different group if you missed one.

B) If you're not going through it as a group package, then no.  We understand you might already be further in the OpEx journey, so you can skip to the Simulations that would help you the most on what you're working on this year!  You can always skip some for good, or take them in the order that you prefer.

We handpicked the best instructors and lessons available in the industry. Why? Because not one person or company can be the most knowledgeable at everything. We have experts in Leadership, Strategic Planning, Safety, Lean, Quality, Six Sigma, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Digital Transformation, Adult Learning, etc.  Each of them will share with you their expertise in the area that most applicable to your role!

We also handpicked a small number of coaches who will facilitate the Coaching and Simulation Exercises. Each coach brings over 15–20 years of experience deploying Operational Excellence in Manufacturing and Supply Chain in a variety of markets. Our coaches are bilingual, so they can support your company across regional and cultural boundaries.

Yes.  After completion, you'll immediately receive a Certificate of Completion.  We're sure that will put a smile on your face.  However, what will make you smile more will be how your career will rocket launch by the actions you will take during and after the learning process!
