Laylah Muran De Assereto’s Summary

Laylah Muran de Assereto is a certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt and professional Process Engineer. Laylah has over 15 years experience analyzing, documenting, and designing processes and making sense of inputs with no outputs and steps with no direction for large and small companies alike. She specializes in helping people see through the frustration and beyond the personalities of a broken process to the root causes and best solutions. With a background in theatre and creative writing and 20+ years working at every level in a number of different industries, Laylah has a creative business savvy and a passion to help people work to live instead of living to work. When she isn’t making sense of nonsensical workflow, Laylah spends time reading bad science fiction, going to concerts, thwarting her cats’ attempts at world domination, and as the Chairman of the Board for The Playwrights’ Center of San Francisco.
