Enterprise Services Planning Program (ESP)
The Enterprise Services Planning (ESP) management training program uses Kanban and a full range of complementary techniques to foster a more predictable and fit-for-purpose organization.
Modern businesses consist of ecosystems of interdependent services
Enterprise Services Planning is a complete management system that uses the techniques verified by the Lean Kanban community to achieve greater coordination and alignment across multiple departments, remote offices, and internal and external customers. It enables agility without loss of management control.
Master the highly challenging environment of Professional Services work by learning:
• how to decide about and select work items,
• when to schedule them,
• in which order to sequence them,
• when there is capacity to take on more work,
• how to manage dependencies,
• how to plan, track, and evaluate results
• how and when to improve
The ESP program consists of five standalone modules which can be consumed as individual 1-day classes or bundled to suit individual needs.
