This certification redefines traditional Lean training by addressing the apparel industry’s unique challenges—moving beyond outdated adaptations of Toyota’s Production System. Unlike conventional Lean Black Belts, participants gain strategic, analytical, and engineering-driven expertise to integrate Lean with Agile, AI, and Industry 4.0 principles.
Led by Dr. Charles Dagher, the program equips leaders to design and execute transformation strategies that drive competitiveness, adaptability, and resilience in labor-intensive apparel manufacturing. Through case studies, simulations, and hands-on applications, participants learn to:
- Align Strategy with Execution – bridging corporate vision, tactical actions, and operational systems.
- Engineer Agile Systems – leveraging predictive analytics, AI, and smart factory principles for real-time decision-making.
- Optimize Workforce Agility – developing adaptive, cross-functional teams guided by structured coaching and mentoring.
- Drive Measurable Results – implementing KPIs, Hoshin Kanri frameworks, and pilot-to-factory scalability.
The 4-day program covers Lean-Agile foundations, strategic execution, advanced transformation strategies, and practical simulations. Graduates earn the Lean-Agile Transformation Leader Certification, recognized as a benchmark for leading Apparel 4.0 transformation.
