About this Event
Building a Culture of Continuous Improvement
You’re invited to join fellow Continuous Improvement professionals for an engaging discussion on building and sustaining a true CI culture. In this session, our speakers will share real world stories from their individual CI journeys highlighting both the wins and the obstacles encountered along the way. From navigating leadership resistance to engaging the workforce, they will provide practical insights drawn from decades of hands-on experience.
Attendees will gain actionable strategies for effectively “selling” CI initiatives especially in environments where change is met with skepticism or hesitation. The discussion will focus on influencing leadership, overcoming resistance, and creating alignment to drive meaningful, sustainable improvement.

Damon Swift is a Continuous Improvement practitioner with 35 years of hands-on experience leading improvement efforts through real operational challenges.
