The document provides an overview of the Six Sigma Green Belt training program. It outlines that upon completion, Green Belts will be able to identify and lead projects that impact business results, implement Six Sigma methodologies, and use basic statistical tools. The training will cover Six Sigma tools and techniques through a syndicated project exercise. At the end, participants must work on and present a project. An examination will be conducted on the last day.
In this lesson, we have covered:
General history of six sigma and continuous improvement
History of lean
Contributions of various people in the evolution of lean six sigma
New Horizons Computer Learning Centers of Southern California Instructor Borhan Musleh covers Lean Six Sigma at the White Belt level in this webinar, originally broadcast on March 6, 2014.
Lean, Six Sigma, ToC using DMAIC project managementSimon Misiewicz
This presentation guides you through the DMAIC methodology that encompasses Lean, Six Sigma and ToC initiatives. There are five key stages of DMAIC. D = Design, where do you want to be? Create and communicate your vision, mission and objectives. M = Measure. What is to be measured and how? A = Analyse, what business process is to be analysed. Which process if changed would reap the biggest benefit? I = Improve, where are the improvements going to be made, what are the ideas and how will they be evaluated against your key objectives? C = Control, how are you going to control your process and people within it to ensure that they stick to the new way of doing things, what error proofing techniques can be built? What project management controls will you use? This presentation will guide you. Please contact me should you have any questions on simon@optimise-gb.com. Many thanks Simon Misiewicz

Basic overview six sigma, Six Sigma is a production philosophy that uses data, processes, and tools to nearly eliminate defects and bring performance close to perfection. Specifically, achieving Six Sigma means that no more than 3.4 defects occur per one million “opportunities” to create an acceptable output
This is complete research and study on the Six sigma and its methodology with case studies of Motorola and GE etc. This will help you a lot in understanding Six Sigma in Detail.

Comparing Stability and Sustainability in Agile SystemsRob Healy
Copy of the presentation given at XP2024 based on a research paper.
In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Public Speaking Tips to Help You Be A Strong Leader.pdfPinta Partners
In the realm of effective leadership, a multitude of skills come into play, but one stands out as both crucial and challenging: public speaking.
Public speaking transcends mere eloquence; it serves as the medium through which leaders articulate their vision, inspire action, and foster engagement. For leaders, refining public speaking skills is essential, elevating their ability to influence, persuade, and lead with resolute conviction. Here are some key tips to consider: https://joellandau.com/the-public-speaking-tips-to-help-you-be-a-stronger-leader/
Org Design is a core skill to be mastered by management for any successful org change.
Org Topologies™ in its essence is a two-dimensional space with 16 distinctive boxes - atomic organizational archetypes. That space helps you to plot your current operating model by positioning individuals, departments, and teams on the map. This will give a profound understanding of the performance of your value-creating organizational ecosystem.

14. Motorola initiated Six Sigma at a time when they
were consistently beaten in the competitive market
by Japanese firms. These firms were able to produce
higher quality products at a lower cost.
A Japanese firm took over a Motorola factory that
manufactured television sets in the 1970s.
15. Under Japanese management, the factory was soon
producing TV sets with 1/20th the number of defects
they had produced under Motorola management.
Japanese did this using the same workforce,
technology, product design, making it clear that the
problem was in Motorola's way of management.
16. Motorola started looking into their way of
working.
Rework cost - 15% of annual revenue.
Bill Smith found a direct correlation of rework
with failure at customer site.
He suggested the entire process to be viewed in
small segments and performance be measured.
17. Each process segment is critically examined
◦ What it is supposed to do.
◦ What is the target.
◦ What is actual.
Thus it was possible to get quantified
performance measure.
18. % was not appropriate measure, instead, to
compete with Japan, ppm be used.
DPMO / Sigma level measurements were
devised, so that every process is measured
in same scale and are comparable.
19. While examining performance of process
segments, focus was on removing
unnecessary activities.
Target was to achieve nearly zero defect out
of million “possibilities of defect”.
The result we know today is “SIX SIGMA”.

• Continuous Defect Reduction in Products &
Services.
• Enhanced Customer Focus

• Performance Dashboards & Metrics
• Project Based Improvement, with Visible
Milestones
• Sustainable Competitive Edge
• Global Acceptance of the Quality System
43. Dr. Walter A. Shewhart, a statistician with Bell
Laboratories, first developed the concept of a ‘continuous
improvement cycle’ in the 1920’s.
This cycle, which is referred to as the PDSA cycle (or the
PDCA cycle as Deming called it), consists of the following
steps designed to improve a process:
Plan how to make changes in the process based on
data that has been collected.
Do what you have planned on a trial basis.
Study (or Check in PDCA) the results of the trial to
determine the effect of the change.
Act on the results observed by taking action or by
standardizing the improvement.

44. The PDSA cycle was developed to decrease the gap
between process performance and customer expectations.
Unfortunately, the PDSA cycle lacks tools and methods
often needed to tackle more complicated problems.
45. The Six-Sigma version of the PDSA cycle is referred to
as the DMAIC process.

52. The project improves an existing process (a
series of activities that creates some sort of
output/result for internal or external
customers.)
The project attacks quality issues ( defects,
scrap, rejects, returns, rework, customer
complaints, warranty costs, late receivables,
lost business, lost time, excess inventory,
unplanned expediting, data redundancy,
product nonconformance) •
53. The project attacks waste issues (excess
transportation, inventory, excess motion,
excess wait time, over-production, over-
processing, defects, underutilized skills of
workforce)
The project attacks cycle time, throughput,
transactional, or hand-off issues
The project focuses on processes that affect
what the customer views as valuable.
The project attacks highly variable process
outputs or processes that have excessive
“firefighting” by management, or are only
resolved by throwing money at the
symptoms.
