The Practical Lean Six Sigma Pocket Guide / Using the A3 and Lean Thinking to Improve Operational Performance in ANY Industry, ANY Time

Description

By: ? Rob Ptacek,?Todd Sperl,Jayant Trewn, PhD

This book bridges the gap between a highly quantitative analysis of a process that requires extensive training (i.e., Six Sigma certification) and a more simplified approach that can be used and understood by the masses (i.e., Lean thinking).? The goal of this book is to make the methods and tools of Lean and Six Sigma accessible to more people and provide a common sense or ?practical? approach to problem solving and continuous improvement.? This book is intended to be used by Sigma Belt Levels, Lean Senseis (i.e., teachers), Continuous Improvement Specialists, front-line managers, and supervisors of departments and work groups, and improvement team members in their efforts to improve all types of administrative processes while reducing waste and variations, and engaging employees.? The Lean Six Sigma tools and concepts are presented relative to the A3 road map to provide a definitive how-to guide to problem solving and continuous improvement (Kaizen) initiatives.
