Shingo Prize: A Complete Guide
You're under pressure. Leadership wants transformation, but you're navigating conflicting methodologies, ambiguous KPIs, and teams resistant to change. Lean initiatives stall. Cultural alignment feels out of reach. And without a proven framework, your efforts risk being seen as another short-lived program, not a sustained operational excellence journey. The Shingo Prize isn't just an award. It’s the global gold standard for organisational transformation. It represents a seismic shift from doing Lean tools to thinking like a world-class enterprise. But the path to Shingo-level maturity is complex, poorly documented, and often guarded by expensive consultants who charge six figures to guide you through it. What if you had a complete, step-by-step roadmap - the same principles used by Toyota, Honeywell, and Danaher - distilled into a structured, actionable system you could implement regardless of industry, size, or current maturity level? Shingo Prize: A Complete Guide gives you that roadmap. This course will take you from awareness to mastery, equipping you to design, execute, and sustain a transformation that delivers measurable cultural and financial results. You’ll go from theoretical understanding to having a fully developed, board-ready Shingo-aligned transformation blueprint in as little as 30 days. David Chen, Senior Operations Director at a Fortune 500 medical device manufacturer, used this methodology to align his 12-site operation. Within 13 months, his organisation qualified for Shingo Prize review and reduced process variation by 68%. “This guide cut through the noise. It gave me the language, structure, and confidence to lead transformation credibly. Now I’m leading the regional excellence team - all because I finally had a real system.” Here’s how this course is structured to help you get there.Course Format & Delivery Details Self-Paced. Immediate Access. Zero Time Conflicts.
This is a fully on-demand learning experience. Enrol once, and you’ll gain access to the complete framework at your own pace, on any device. No live sessions. No deadlines. No scheduling stress. Whether you have 15 minutes between meetings or two focused hours on a weekend, the material adapts to your rhythm. Typical learners complete the core content in 25 to 30 hours. Many report implementing their first cultural diagnostic or leadership alignment workshop within the first week, generating visible momentum and stakeholder engagement long before certification day. Lifetime Access with Continuous Updates
Once you enrol, you own the course forever. That means lifetime access to every resource, tool, and template. But we don’t stop there. The Shingo Model evolves. So do we. All future updates, refinements, and new case studies are included at no additional cost. Your investment is protected and compounded over time. Access Anywhere, Anytime
Learn on your phone, tablet, or desktop. The platform is mobile-optimised, fully responsive, and available 24/7. Whether you’re preparing for a leadership meeting on a flight or reviewing a principle during a coffee break, complete access is built for real-world demands. Dedicated Expert Guidance, Not Just Content
This isn’t a passive library. You receive direct access to a team of Shingo-qualified practitioners for clarification, feedback on implementation plans, and strategic guidance. You’re never alone in applying the model. Submit questions through the platform and receive structured, actionable responses - the same level of support consultants provide at ten times the cost. Earn Your Certificate of Completion from The Art of Service
Upon finishing the course and submitting your final project, you’ll receive a Certificate of Completion issued by The Art of Service. This is not a generic participation badge. It’s a globally recognised credential, backed by over 15 years of excellence training, used by professionals in 147 countries to validate their mastery and accelerate promotions, salary increases, and consulting opportunities.

The listed price includes everything. No subscription traps. No upsells. No surprise charges. You pay once and receive full access to all materials, updates, support, and the certificate. Secure payment is accepted via Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal. All transactions are processed through encrypted, PCI-compliant gateways for your complete protection. 365-Day Money-Back Guarantee - Zero Risk
If this course doesn’t deliver clarity, confidence, and a measurable boost in your ability to lead transformation, simply request a full refund within 365 days. No forms. No hoops. No questions asked. We remove the risk so you can focus on results. “Will This Work for Me?” - The Real Answer
You might think: “This sounds ideal, but I’m not a consultant. I don’t lead a Fortune 500 company. I’m already overwhelmed.” Exactly why this course is structured the way it is. It works even if you’re the only person in your organisation who understands operational excellence. It works even if previous Lean programs failed. It works even if you’re in healthcare, IT, logistics, or education - industries where Shingo principles are thriving today. This works even if you have no budget - because you’ll learn how to build the business case and secure funding using Shingo-aligned logic. The tools are scalable. The language is universally applicable. And the methodology is built on proven change science, not fads. After enrolment, you’ll receive a confirmation email. Once your course materials are prepared, your access details will be sent separately. You’re in control from day one - safe, supported, and on a path to undeniable impact.
