This year’s conference will focus on “Connecting People and Technology” with a hands-on learning experience like no other conference. Included in your conference fee, you will be able to benchmark a company that is using the Shingo Model to learn how it complements their Lean efforts to make sustainable culture change. You will learn how the country of Ireland has embraced the Shingo Model and used it as a driver to become the best in the world. In addition, you will learn from thought leaders and practitioners all over Europe to see how they are leading operational and organizational change from their part of the world.
You will hear from Irish organizations how the Shingo Guiding Principles helped enable successful integration of Industry 4.0 at their sites. Make sure to mark your calendars to attend this event to expand your knowledge, to network with like-minded professionals, and to improve your own organization.
Shingo is a premier award for enterprise excellence and represents the gold standard in the measurement of continuous improvement within organisations. Unique in nature, it sets rigorous standards and recognises only those enterprises that display a willingness to share knowledge with others… to link up and collaborate with fellow organisations, exchange learnings and ideas, for the benefit of all.
Through the unique partnership between the Shingo Institute and ICBE, over the past few years, 13 Irish companies have been awarded Shingo recognition and Ireland has the highest number of Shingo Prize awards per capita in the World. In addition, we at the ICBE are exceptionally proud that our organisation has played a key role in helping our members pursue this esteemed accolade - introducing them to the Shingo Model as part of their pursuit of business excellence. It speaks volumes that most Irish recipients of Shingo prizes are either past or current members of the ICBE. In our partnership with the Shingo Institute, we actively support the wider Global journey in guiding both companies and countries on the benefits and gains that can be made from following a structured Management Excellence System.
