Whats New?
Free Training for your Next Job

Our hearts reach out to those of our subscribers that have recently found themselves looking for a new career.

And we also reach out a helping hand for you.
Systems2win offers extensive free on-line training on subjects that will certainly be of interest to any potential new employer:

* Lean
* Kaizen
* Six Sigma quality improvement
* Value Stream Management
* Training Within Industry

If you are finding yourself with more time than money during a life transition, why not use this opportunity to sharpen your saw?

Not only will you be able to "cut more wood when you return to the forest", but you might be more likely to be hired if you can demonstrate a clear command of the Continuous Improvement tools and methods that have become so foundational to the success of so many industry leaders.

Check out our free on-line training home page,
and then add it to your browser Favorites
so that you can easily come back to it again & again to learn one or two subjects at a time -
in bite-size, easily-digestible sessions. Free.

You're not unemployed -
You're a consultant

Real consultants hate that old joke,
but in this case it's true..

If you are unemployed, you qualify for System2win's special consultant discount pricing.

So rather than just reading our free on-line training and viewing our free on-line training videos,
you might find it affordable to get your own Lean tools.

You know, I earned my way through college as a carpenter, and even the union jobs wouldn't even accept your application if you hadn't yet invested in your own carpenter's tools. On the first job site where I applied, the foreman laughed and asked me, "what kind of carpenter doesn't even own any carpenter's tools?" Needless to say, the second foreman I visited was able to observe a demonstration of my mastery of the tools of the trade.

Download latest trial templates

Systems2win offers 3 trial templates: Value Stream Mapping Power Tool, Visual Work Instructions, and a Strategic Planning worksheet. Each working document created using a Systems2win trial template has a 30-day trial period. If you need more time, you can simply start a new working document, or download fresh trial templates - until you reach a maximum of 100 days since your first download - at which time your trial templates will only work after you purchase your license.

Or better yet, why not put all 100+ templates through your test gauntlet? If your company has over $1 million revenues, we also offer the option to Buy & Try - where you purchase the full licensed version with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

New Kaizen Tools

The fill-in-the-blanks Systems2win Kaizen tools have been completely overhauled with:

* Easier step-by-step instructions to guide you through every stage of a Kaizen Event - from planning through follow-up

* More emphasis on follow-up - to ensure that your improvements are actually sustained

* Closer conformance with the teachings found in the suggested readings - which can then be used as the "long version" training for your Kaizen Facilitators

* A new PowerPoint template to make it super easy to prepare your Executive Presentation.

And the Systems2win Kaizen Tools still come with the Lean & Kaizen Training template - a editable 130-page PowerPoint presentation which your Lean Leaders can "cannibalize" to quickly prepare personalized training presentations to teach participants just what they need to know about the Lean tools and teachings that are essential for THAT upcoming Kaizen Event.

Unlike some of the more advanced Systems2win tools, these Kaizen tools are drop-dead simple to use. If anyone knows anything at all about Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, they won't require any training whatsoever to use the foundational tools - and can focus all of their attention on learning and mastering the concepts of Kaizen and team leadership.

Like all Systems2win tools, these Kaizen tools are inexpensive enough to empower every one of your Kaizen team stakeholders with a seat of their own - so that everyone can participate.
