Aligning your business strategy, culture, and operating model is important to you and operations expert, Wayne Washington. Expose and eliminate your hidden costs, disengaged employees and unnecessary complexity, which are ‘value drains’ that significantly impact your business results. Wayne helps you expose and eliminate your ‘value drains.’Like you, CEO and operations expert, Wayne Washington has seen the term ‘operations excellence’ defined many ways over the years. Do you take a top-down or bottom-up approach? Is it a cost reduction or a cost optimization initiative? Will we outsource or establish strategic a partnership? Or, is it simply a workflow process review?With over three decades of managing operations, speaking, and day-to-day in-the-trenches running a business, Wayne’s view of ‘operational excellence’ is radically different. Wayne has learned ‘operational excellence’ is not a destination, but an ongoing journey in pursuit of a company’s strategic goals. Unlike other operational experts, Wayne sees operational excellence as an entire organization working together to: 1.) Transform mindsets; 2.) Measure outcomes; and 3.) Monitor progress.Wayne, sometimes referred to as, ‘The Doctor of Operations,’ for his skill in diagnosing ailing operations using probing questions; prescribing a course of action based on the diagnostic results; and as one treatment option, serving as a mentor. Wayne’s blend of real world examples, use of a conversational approach, and transparency, connect Wayne with his audiences in an authentic, engaging, and ‘truly unique’ way.Wayne has served as facility manager for the Mead Johnson Nutritional Division of Bristol Myers Squibb and managed an $18 million annual expense budget and led a team of more than one hundred employees.Wayne is the founder and CEO of a 20-year-old facility management company and continues to work with the best and the brightest in the operational excellence field.
