This Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt Minitab® and Lean Six Sigma book provides the details for executing Minitab functions in a detailed Lean Six Sigma define-measure-analyze-improve-control (DMAIC ) roadmap, where there is focus on enhancing a Y process output response. Amazon book reviews have been great!
This Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt Minitab® and Lean Six Sigma book references over 50 datasets showing how to use a free software app for process performance tracking that provides insight not possible with traditional metric reporting techniques.
Standard metric reporting via a table of numbers, red-yellow-green scorecards, and process capability Cp and Cpk metrics have issues that methodologies provided in this book resolves.
The lean six sigma master black belt book provides over 200 figures that illustrate software inputs and outputs.
This book provides:
- A clickable Lean Six Sigma Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control (DMAIC) process-improvement roadmap that integrates the application of Lean and Six Sigma tools so that when undertaking process improvement efforts, there is the use of the right tool at the right time
- Provides a methodology for showing and quantifying at the 30,000-foot-level the benefits of process improvement efforts
- Offers a means for Lean Six Sigma improvement project selection so that these projects benefit the big-picture
- Shows a business process improvement system that goes beyond traditional Lean Six Sigma and performance metric reporting (e.g., a table of numbers and red-yellow-green scorecards)
Provides direction on how to benefit from the wise application of:
- Statistical and non-statistical techniques.
- Design of Experiments (DOE) in both manufacturing and transactional processes.
Provides direction on how organizations can resolve issues that commonly occur with:
- Lean Six Sigma deployments
- Traditional control charts and process capability reporting techniques
- AQL testing and reporting
This lean six sigma master black belt book provides a comprehensive 9-step system that leaders can use to resolve elephant-in-the-room management issues such as:
- Business goals not being met
- Scorecards leading to destructive (or unhealthy) behaviors
- Persistent day-to-day firefighting problems
- Lean events and other improvement projects consume many resources but often do not offer a quantifiable benefit to the business as a whole
- Business strategies that are very generic and difficult to translate into organizational work environments
- Lean Six Sigma process improvement deployments that have improvement projects, which are either not completed in a timely fashion or which make substantial financial claims that are questionable
