Supercharge your open-cut mine - Australasia

Supercharge your open-cut mine

INTRODUCTION

Many successful managers reach a point where they become dissatisfied with just meeting targets - they want to dramatically exceed them and create an inspiring and enjoyable work environment. Success at this level requires more than excellent management skills; you also have to unlock hidden capabilities and capacity. Designed for ambitious leaders, this session aims to help you augment your current strategies.

What if a new perspective could supercharge your open-cut mine? Since 2000 we have been applying our Theory of Constraints and people-focused approach, transforming mining operations across South America, Europe, Africa and Australia.

This approach works because it guides employees and managers to collaborate in developing breakthrough solutions. It also clarifies the connection between activities and successful outcomes, increasing work satisfaction and the drive to cooperate.

In over 90 interventions, we have supported production increases in the range of 10-30% (using the same resources). This helped miners such as Anglo American, Glencore, Gold Fields, Simec and De Beers.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In this session, you will learn the following:

• A theory of constraints (TOC) explanation for unstable production flow and other obstacles to increased productivity.
• How to quickly elevate operational performance to a state of "superflow" with the aid of TOC insights.
• Practical strategies to overcome resistance to change by implementing a dual-management operating system that optimises available resources.
• The intriguing concept of the Flow Room and its effectiveness in motivating employees and fostering a sense of ownership.
• A case study that underscores the practical application of these concepts.

ABOUT HENDRIK LOURENS

Hendrik Lourens studied physics and polymer science (MSc Polymer Science) before starting his career in the Petrochemical Industry. In 2010 he became the first to qualify in all areas of the Theory of Constraints within one year. At this time, he started collaborating with the late Arrie van Niekerk, the inventor of TOC Production Flow for mining, in turning around organisational performance. In 2013 he founded Stratflow to help clients achieve breakthrough performance by focusing their effort on the few critical leverage points that affect their system. He has worked with companies such as Aurizon, Qantas, John Holland, CPB, Downer & Anglo American, BHP, Roy Hill, Oz Minerals and Simec.
