AME Atlanta 2024 International Conference

 
Practitioner Presentations

Year after year, continuous improvement practitioners from the front office to the front line return to the AME International Conference to hear the latest from those who are in the thick of their own enterprise excellence journey. Conference participants count on AME to deliver leading edge examples and practitioner-based ideas that fit their individual needs. The AME conference offers outcomes for everyone at every level. You'll hear concrete examples about cultures, processes and tools including success — and failure — stories. You’ll be in good company with those who have walked the same path you’re traveling, and they’ll share proven know-how that empowers you to help your company differentiate and prosper. Our growing list of sessions includes presentations with practitioners from manufacturing, healthcare and other industries. All sessions will take place at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Please note that some sessions may not be available on-demand after the conference at the speaker's request.
