5. KEYNOTE ADDRESSES
William Saraswat will address the novel topic of how
Lean Six Sigma can be used to deal with business
disruption. When, not if, business disruptions do
happen, Enterprise Transformation can be the
difference between a mere business survival and
exemplary business excellence.

Lean Start-Up can be used to lead successful
innovation in organisations. The author’s
presentation will describe the key leadership habits
and behaviours of a Lean Start-up entrepreneur that
can be adopted within an organisational setting,
some key traps to avoid, and provide a highlight of
the advantages of using Lean Start-up within
organisations.
