OE Coffee: Brew Ideas, Cut Waste, Save Costs
11:10 AM - 12:00 PM
Zoom

Join the Operational Excellence Center of Expertise for "OE Coffee", an informal yet structured way to discuss process improvement ideas, challenges, and opportunities.
Participants bring their own topics, vote on what matters most, and engage in focused discussions. It’s a great way to share knowledge, spark collaboration, and leave with actionable insights.
BYOC (bring your own coffee) ☕️ 😉
