What is the Production-Grade Continuous Improvement course about?
Teams invest in agile, lean, and improvement frameworks, but when applied across remote and in-person environments with mixed tooling and governance demands, they break down. Initiatives stall, metrics lose meaning, and alignment fades. The gap isn't intent, it's operational rigor.
