The 11th annual Washington State Government Lean Transformation Conference is going virtual for the third year in a row, and we invite you to register now! Registration is first-come, first-serve, and the conference usually fills up quickly, so register as soon as you can.

This year’s event will be held over several days between October 18 – 27 and allows you to customize your learning by signing up for sessions that fit in with your schedule.

Our core audience are Washington state employees, and we warmly welcome people from our local, county and federal government from within and outside of our state. We also encourage those in the private sector to attend as well. If you are looking to broaden your Lean and Continuous Improvement learnings, this conference is for you!

Our goal for the conference is to provide:

  • Concrete tools and methods that participants can readily apply to their work vs. theory-based presentations
  • Learning that can be applied with hybrid and remote work environments to meet current and future realities
  • Learning that supports a commitment to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in this work

 

HOW DO I REGISTER?

Registration will be identical to last year’s conference – you will need to sign up for each session individually. Watch this short Lean Conference Registration Instructions video for helpful tips about registration. The basic steps are:

  • Visit our website to learn about the sessions
  • Register for EACH session you’d like to attend
  • When you get the confirmation email, ADD the Zoom appointment to your calendar

Visit our website for the event schedule, session descriptions, FAQs, and tips on engaging successfully at an online conference.

 

WHAT TYPE OF CONTENT WILL BE AVAILABLE?

The conference will feature twenty-four sessions that target a variety of different skill levels – there will be something for everyone! 

Highlights include:

  • Opening remarks by Governor Jay Inslee
  • Keynote address by Dean Schroeder, PhD – scholar, consultant and award-winning author of The Idea-Driven Organization and Practical Innovation in Government
  • Breakout sessions presented by public and private-sector Lean and Continuous Improvement expert partners

We’ll deliver sessions using Zoom Webinar and post recordings of the sessions after the conference. As part of our commitment to inclusion and continuous improvement, we are working to provide live captioning and ASL interpretation for all sessions.

 

IS THERE A COST TO ATTEND?

Admission is still free. In past years we asked attendees to bring a canned food item for donation. This year, we ask that you consider giving back  through the Combined Fund Drive, either via the general fund or your favorite charity.

Please visit our conference website for more information.

We are looking forward to learning together in October!
