Productivity for Industry 4.0

• Understand the causes of the modern Productivity Paradox and evaluate where it is occurring in your work.
• Evaluate where to focus AI to deliver greater value, and identify where it may make productivity worse in your organisation.
• Identify the barriers that have prevented productivity improvements discovered in manufacturing from crossing over into managerial and knowledge work.
• Use frameworks to differentiate valuable work activities from wasteful.
• Create a supportive environment for your teams that leverages their innate talents and needs.

Each industrial revolution has first improved life for customers, then for workers. Industry 3.0 made many goods more affordable and improved workplace safety and conditions.
However, while Industry 4.0 has transformed customer experience, many managerial and knowledge workers now face lower job satisfaction and higher levels of burnout.
This course helps managers and leaders understand the sources of workplace frustration and equips them with practical tools and approaches to improve productivity, working experience, and staff satisfaction.

The participants will obtain a certificate from the Luxembourg School of Business. Our school is certified by the Ministry of Education as a lifelong learning organization and member of AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business).

How to finance your training

• Financial support from the State : Luxembourg School of Business is accredited by the Luxembourg Ministry of Higher Education and Research and recognised as a continuing education organisation. As a result, your company can benefit from financial aid from the Luxembourgish state for the training of its employees.
• Tax Deductibility for an individual: Any taxpayer with net income from a salaried occupation may deduct the cost of professional development as business expenses (frais d’obtention) from their taxable income from the salaried occupation. Further training expenses which are related to the taxpayer’s current activity fall within the scope of the acquisition costs of article 105 of the ITA and are therefore deductible from taxable income.
