This document provides an overview of Six Sigma, including its history and key aspects. It began in the late 1970s at Motorola to improve quality control processes. Six Sigma aims to identify and remove defects in processes by achieving near zero defect levels. There are five phases (DMAIC or DMADV) involving defining goals, measuring processes, analyzing data, improving processes, and controlling improvements. Belts include Yellow, Green, Black and Master Black to denote expertise levels. Many companies across industries have implemented Six Sigma to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
One of the most valued skill sets a project manager can develop is the ability to predict an outcome. Whether it is the outcome of a test, a process, a service, a product or all of the above – there are a few foundational concepts within Lean Six Sigma that will improve your ability to predict project outcomes.
This session will demonstrate how the concept of variation applies to problem solving, and why management by fact is not just a luxury – it's a necessity. It will also demonstrate that while it is good to expect workers to do things right the first time, it is smart to make it impossible for them to do things wrong the first time.
Six Sigma offers a problem solving roadmap that
can be applied to any business function.
• Its lack of success in sales and marketing comes
from an unwillingness of leadership of those functions
to fully embrace the methodology.
• Applying Six Sigma requires altering both
processes and attitudes.

Six Sigma seeks to improve the quality of
process
outputs by identifying
and removing the causes of
defects.
Six Sigma approach is a collection of managerial
and statistical concept and techniques that
focuses on reducing variation in
processes and preventing deficiencies in product.
The concept of Variation states “NO two items
will be perfectly
identical.”
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.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

3. Introduction:
A methodology to improve a business process by
constantly revising, updating and retuning the
existing process.
“ SIR BILL SMITH” the father of six sigma introduce
this quality improvement methodology to Motorola.
Six sigma is now an enormous “brand” in the
world of corporate development.
Six Sigma is a letter in the Greek alphabet used
to “denote the standard deviation of a process”.
Six Sigma is a business management strategy to
identifying “defects” and removing them from the
process of production to improve quality.
4. 4
DEFINITION:
Six sigma seeks to improve the
quality of process outputs by
identifying and removing the causes
of defects.
A six sigma process is one in which
99.9999966% of the products,
manufactured are statistically
expected to be free of defects (3.4
defects per million)
A six sigma is a very clever way of
branding and packaging many
aspects of total quality
5. 5
History:
In late 1970 Motorola started experimenting
with problem solving through statistical analysis
It was introduced by American engineer “BILL
SMITH” while working at motorolo in 1880.
1987 Motorola officially launched it six sigma
program.
In 1991 motolola certified its first “black belt”
six sigma experts.
By the year 2000, six sigma was effectively
established as an industry in its own right,
involving the training, consultancy and
implementation of six sigma methodology.

17. case study
Catalent pharma solution, is a leader in
developing solutions for the
pharmaceutical, veterinary, biological
and consumer health industries. The
company was faced with high number of
defects after producing millions of units.
The process flow was slow because of
the time required to analyse the
samples.
Six sigma processes were applied to
address these issues.
17
18. The company specifically required a solution for their proprietary
product known as ZYDIS. The company needed new systems that
would help to predict the process variation.
The project team devised a database to collect information.
The programming language used for automation was flexible and
easy to replicate.
The efficiency was improved by making these changes.
After two weeks of implementing six sigma processes the company
prevented the loss of two batches of product, which was worth 50.000
pounds, which is “five million one hundred one thousand five hundred”
This case study demonstrates how companies can improve processes to
meet six sigma standards, prevent loses and save the money.
