Rebecca Orbeck (PNAPP class of 2016) just won the Lean Fellowship! http://results.wa.gov/what-we-do/apply-lean/lean-fellowship-program

Results Washington, part of the governor’s office, offers a state Lean fellowship program (PDF) through which state employees spend one-year terms deepening their understanding of Lean principles and tools.

The fellows, all of whom are state employees:

  • help lead targeted improvement efforts
  • working directly with agency directors and staff at all levels
  • learn from public- and private-sector Lean consultants
  • work closely with Results Washington senior performance advisors

These fellowships are exciting opportunities for excellent employees to develop their Lean skill sets, hone those skills in a wide variety of settings and help tackle some of the biggest challenges facing state government.
