Lisa Boisvert has consulted with organizations in the application
of Process Improvement and Hoshin Planning in such areas as
electrical power generation; the manufacture of vaccines, laser
fabric cutters, roofing material, industrial surface conditioning
brushes, and insulin testing kits; the processing of chicken and
bread; banking; and the delivery of patient care and human
services.
Prior to forming Business Centered Learning™, LLC in 1999, Boisvert

Earlier, as the company’s Research Director, she convened and
published the collective work of leaders from around the world in
the application of Process Improvement and Hoshin Planning to
manufacturing, health care, and financial services industries. Her
work with these early Hoshin practitioners, progressive executives
and Quality Management subject matter experts continues to inform
her work with leadership teams today.
