"QUALITY IS MAGICAL, BUT QUALITY DOESN'T MAGICALLY HAPPEN." -C. Mignosa
SIX SIGMA EXECUTIVE BRIEFING
Six Sigma Overview - 3 Days
For those wanting more
depth in how to select and execute Six Sigma improvement and management
efforts — but not needing a full "Black Belt" indoctrination
— the Six Sigma Overview workshop is a great choice. The session
provides a fast-paced orientation to the DMAIC
(Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control) process, with hands-on
activities to illustrate and practice key tools and skills.
Participants also learn to recognize opportunities for "FastTrack"
or accelerated improvement projects and when to consider redesign as an
option to achieve high levels of improvement.
Six Sigma Overview is a
good choice for anyone wanting a more practical understanding and basic
ability to use Six Sigma tools. "Green Belts" or
part-time team members, process owners, project Champions and others are
likely to find the session valuable and enlightening.
