Garry Doyle

Lean Trainer and Consultant

I am an experienced Lean Transformation Consultant with proven ability to implement Continuous Improvement initiatives and lead process improvement projects using Lean/Six Sigma methodology. I am particularly adept at developing comprehensive Lean programs for organizations that are in the early stage of their Lean transformation. I develop customized continuous improvement strategies for all levels of the organization, through a holistic application of Lean methodologies to deliver organizational effectiveness and problem solving maturity.

I achieve this through the strategic deployment of “Lean expertise” to all functional levels of management in a concerted effort to support organizational growth that is consistent with specific project progression. The goal here is to develop a leader led implementation mindset that optimizes the Lean Consultant resource. I Link this to a Lean training program that supports project deployment with a change management strategy that focuses on clear identification of the need to change and how that message is championed throughout the organization, through clarity of purpose and disciplined application.

I have acted as Lean trainer, coach and mentor to cross functional teams to accomplish synergies of purpose and achievement with verified and sustainable results. I have a track record of successful delivery of projects that align with business strategy by providing leadership in process improvement, project lifecycle management, change management, sponsor and stakeholder engagement.

With a solid foundation in Industrial Engineering, I have considerable Operations/Plant Management experience in multiple business sectors (including Healthcare, Public Health, Local Municipality, Construction, Food, Textiles and FMCG.
