Improve Systems and Processes in your Organization with Critical Tools Needed to Take the Next Step
Every organization seeks to improve performance. Learn to apply analytical tools and decision science methods to business scenarios via systems models. Create discrete event simulations (DES) for modeling variation, finite human and physical resources, operating schedules, and process errors or defects. Test process improvements and determine if the desired outcome is achieved.
Then, make business case arguments for validated process change. Recommend strategies to improve organizational performance and tie your analysis to market trends, competitive pressures, and sales predictions. Practice different project management approaches and move from being a project participant to a project owner so you can realize your vision.
Later, supplement these abilities with your choice of any two graduate certificates – three-course, nine-credit hour experiences designed around key techniques employed by effective leaders at work.
