| 1 – What is Lean/Six Sigma?
This Executive Overview is a two-hour session to introduce LEAN Six Sigma.
LEAN Six Sigma blends both the LEAN principles and Six Sigma philosophy into one workshop.
Lean Six Sigma is the integration of two powerful process improvement methodologies. Lean Enterprise focuses on the concept of continuous flow using tools such as Value Stream Mapping, Kanban / Pull Systems, Setup Reduction / Quick Changeover and Kaizen Events.
Six Sigma uses the DMAIC process – Define, Measure, Improve & Control to solve challenging business problems. The Six Sigma DMAIC method utilizes formal project definition, data collection, and statistical analysis to select the right opportunity, implement the most appropriate improvements, and sustain the improvements over the long term.
