🇦🇺 From Australia to UCS Group!
On Tuesday, we had the pleasure of welcoming Edwin Proper to UCS for our Lean By Design Tour, all the way from Australia!
We kicked off the day with a bowl of Irish stew and a chat about Edwin’s trip to Ireland, where he’s been visiting other companies on their own lean journeys and learning how different businesses approach continuous improvement.
Then it was time to get stuck into the factory tour! It was a brilliant opportunity to share our approach to lean, discuss the processes we have in place and exchange ideas on how we can continue to improve. There was plenty of learning from both sides, with great conversations throughout the visit.
One of the most valuable parts of sharing experiences with others is seeing things from a different perspective. Visits like these give us the chance to reflect on what we do, share what we've learned and take away new ideas to put into practice.
A big thank you to Edwin for making the journey to visit us. It was a pleasure having you at UCS, and we hope you enjoyed your time with us!
