Achieving Enterprise Excellence

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt

Overview

Lean Six Sigma integrates two independently developed improvement tools: Lean and Six Sigma. Six Sigma stresses analytical studies, Lean methods concentrates on cutting waste. The power of combining both Lean and Six Sigma is to achieve full process optimization. Only a fast and responsive process is capable of achieving high quality, and only a high quality process can sustain high quality products and customer satisfaction.

Objectives

Green Belts are employees trained in basic Lean & Six Sigma concepts, including project management, team building, general problem solving and statistical analysis. They work as part of a team assigned to a given project, maintaining their operational roles in the organization. In Six Sigma organizations, eventually, most employees will achieve Green Belt status. Workshops and Discussions allow attendees to apply their skills to a variety of issues, including:

Deployment Practices
Project Charters & Scheduling
Teams & Consensus Building
Project Definition
Process Baseline, Measurement Systems Analysis and SPC
Regression Basics, including an overview of Designed Experiments
Lean Methods
