This document provides an overview of Six Sigma. It begins with defining Six Sigma as a data-driven approach to reducing defects and variations in processes. It then outlines the typical Six Sigma roadmap and process, including the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC) methodology. Applications of Six Sigma across various industries like manufacturing, banking, healthcare, and IT are also highlighted. The presentation concludes with emphasizing that Six Sigma focuses on defining processes, measuring performance, identifying root causes of problems, making improvements, and monitoring ongoing performance.

 Meaning of Six sigma
 Six sigma road map
 Six sigma process
 Why six sigma
 Approaches of Six Sigma
 The DMAIC process
 Applications of Six Sigma
 Key Points

3. Six Sigma relies heavily on advanced statistical methods
that complement and reduce the process and product
variations. It is a new way of doing business that would
eliminate the existing defects efficiently and would
prevent defects from occurring
