Course description
Lean Six Sigma for Executives and Senior Management
The journey to Operational Excellence starts with building awareness in driving Continuous Improvement within an organization. A valuable asset to executives and senior management is in obtaining Lean Six Sigma (LSS) Yellow Belt awareness level training.
The objective of this course is to provide a basic understanding of the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control approach to problem solving, referred to as “DMAIC”, and often used in conjunction with Lean Six Sigma.
What is DMAIC?
DMAIC, or “Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control” was made popular by the Six Sigma community, but stands on its own as a versatile and complete problem-solving roadmap.
What else is covered in addition to Lean Six Sigma?
As the target audience involves executives and senior management, the course also includes key aspects of Social Leadership, Change Management and general Management Principles.
This is a starting point for building quality focus competencies. The intent is to provide basic awareness to leaders and managers so they can ask the right questions to their workforce.
An experienced "Analyze and Improve" trainer consultant will deliver the training.
