You don’t have to hire a team of consultants to do these things. Building fast change into your culture is easy! Just open the box.
Rapid Action is a step-by-step roadmap that allows sponsors, team leaders and team members to cohesively work together to successfully complete projects fast.
Start Planning Your Project Right Now
You have problems, but do you have a plan? Rapid Action Project Planning gives you everything you need to create one.
You know what to work on, but how do you avoid a slow start? Following scripted Team Guides™ allows teams to brainstorm solutions within 30 minutes of their first meeting.
Put Solutions to Work
You have great ideas, but who will do the work? Rapid Action™ teams hold each other accountable to meet deadlines and use Action Accelerator™ templates to turn ideas into action.
Keep Your Stakeholders Engaged
Your team is rolling, but when do they communicate with Stakeholders? Team Leaders and Sponsors connect weekly and use the Team Storyboard™ to track live progress on ideas being implemented.
Things are wrapping up, but where are the numbers? Rapid Action™ includes detailed guides for reporting financial and productivity gains as well as control plans to make sure the new solutions stick.
The perfect complement to whatever else you already do…even if that’s nothing.
Rapid Action™ is designed to seamlessly integrate into a variety of continuous improvement disciplines, including Lean and Six Sigma. It is also the perfect way to start for companies that don’t have a formal continuous improvement program yet, but know they want to get more organized about how they improve.
Where could you be in 60 days?
Rapid Action is simply the best tool for making positive improvements in your organization. One of the strengths of the program is that it brings together people on the front lines with other departments and management. Front line staff understand the process as well as anyone but are often left out of improvement plans.

Launching multiple successful projects would not have been possible without the structure and framework of the Rapid Action process. We have engaged all levels of leadership and staff to quickly deploy changes in our processes that have provided real benefits to our patients and our care teams.
