Lean Six Sigma Green Belt (LSSGB)

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt

Six Sigma is not just an improvement methodology that uses the DMAIC- Define – Measure- Analyze- Improve – Control framework, but it also is –

A System of management to achieve lasting business leadership and top performance applied to benefit business, customers, associates and shareholders in Service, Manufacturing and BFSI sectors

A Measure to define the capability of any process

A Goal for improvement, that targets near perfection through continuous reduction of variation.

According to Michael George, author of the best seller Lean Six Sigma, “Rapid improvement requires both Lean and Six Sigma as an amalgamated approach”-Integration with Lean and Innovation

Lean Six Sigma is a methodology that maximizes shareholder value by achieving the fastest rate of improvement in customer satisfaction, cost, quality, process speed and invested capital

The fusion of Lean and Six Sigma is required because-Lean cannot bring a process in statistical control and Six Sigma, alone cannot dramatically improve the process speed or reduce invested capital

In recent times many organizations have used the cutting edge advantage of Innovation to come up with “Out of the Box” ideas that have radically improved processes.

Benefits

Self-assessment of current competence level can be undertaken prior to the training program.

Participants will gain knowledge about using Minitab Statistical software for analysis of data.

Completion of the training and the post-assessment test will qualify the participant for 28 PMI PDUs.

Can become a certified Lean Six Sigma professional after completion of a project in the respective organization.

Project guidance is provided by trainers who consult organizations for Six Sigma deployment.

Participants will gain practical deployment knowledge for Lean as well as Innovation
