    Practical sessions included

A business to function, and further to prosper, needs to follow well established and tested rules and regulations. These rules are modelled on some successful processes. Japan, for instance, had lost almost everything in the Second World that came to an end in 1945.However, it came back to normalcy with great thanks to the ‘muda’ (a process started by Toyota to eliminate waste processes).  Today, we have, as a result, techniques like the Lean and Six Sigma helping the businesses achieve the desired results – a situation like “All Profit No Loss”.

About Watford

Watford is a town located in Hertfordshire, England, located 17 miles  to the northwest of central London .

The town developed on the River Colne on land that belonged until the 16th century to St Albans Abbey . During the 12th century a charter was granted allowing a market and building St Mary's Church began. The town grew modestly. It was assisted by travellers passing through to Berkhamsted Castle and the royal palace at Kings Langley. A big house was built at Cassiobury in the 16th century.

The Industrial revolution

For many centuries, Watford relied on  agriculture. The Industrial Revolution brought the Grand Junction in 1798 and the London and Birmingham Railway in 1837. The land-owning interests permitted the canal to follow closely by the river Gade. Although the road and canal follow the easier valley route, the railway company was forced to build an expensive tunnel.
