Lean Six Sigma Thinking

Lean Six Sigma Dmaic

Lean six sigma provides a rigorous and structured approach to help manage and improve quality and performance, and to solve potentially complex problems.

Lean thinking focusses on enhancing value for the customer by improving and smoothing the process flow and eliminating waste.

Six Sigma is a systematic and robust approach to improvement which focuses on the customer and other key stakeholders. 

It helps you use the right tools, in the right place and in the right way, not just improvement but also in your day to day management activities. 

Lean six sigma really is about getting key principles and concepts into the DNA and lifeblood of your organization so that it becomes a natural part of how you do things.


Learn The Jargon - Then Apply It!

Lean Six Sigma Foundations takes you step-by-step through the jargon, breaking it down into easy bite-sized steps. You will learn how to demystify:

DFSS
Specifications and Defects

Managing Change with Lean Six Sigma

Lean six sigma helps managers and team leaders better understand their role and improve organisational efficiency and effectiveness

If you want to change outcomes, you need to realise that the outcomes of the result of systems. Not the Computer Systems, but the way people work together and interact. And the systems of a product of tell people think and behave.

So if you want to change outcomes, you have to change your systems, and to do that, you have to change your thinking.

The significant problems we funds cannot be solved by the same level of thinking which caused them.

Harnessing DMAIC

Lean Six Sigma thinking is not about asset stripping and 'Making do '

Instead, this approach focuses on doing the right things right, so that you really do add value for your customer and make your organization affective and efficient.

The main focus of lean six sigma relates to DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control)

This is the Lean Six Sigma Method for improving existing processes that forms part of organization systems, and provides an ideal way to help you in your quest for continuous improvement.

Your PMP Masterclass has done the most exciting thing in my life. I have got through the Exam on 5th June test. Thank you very much.

You and your voice are still very inspiring. You wont imagine... even after my exam I came back and as usual opened your PMP Masterclass to hear your voice that begins with........Hi its Dave......

It has become a part of my life and for any PMP question I may get in future, I find the answer from Projex Acadmy's PMP Masterclass (it's comforting to know I have course access)

I want to thank you for your great PMP Masterclass Training materials. I passed my exam yesterday on my first try and I owe a lot of that success to your fantastic presentation of the project management processes and knowledge areas. I have been singing your praises to all my colleagues who are pursuing the certification and have encouraged them to buy your training

 I want to take this opportunity to thank you so much for your PMP Masterclass! Needless to say, I loved your PMP Masterclass and, after seeing the perfect pricing (I am a student, and of course pursuing the PMP is a cost in itself), I made the decision to purchase your Video PMP Masterclass.

After cramming your video's into 3.5 days of studying (you were my sole study material for most of this time) I am thrilled to say I passed my PMP exam (on the Sunday morning)! I was shocked at how much I actually retained, especially with regards to the maths (I am NOT a math person usually, nor do I have ANY sense of memorization)! Thank you for helping me not only memorize, but also understand - and, thus, learn - the concepts I needed to know.

In Module 3 you will learn the three key six sigma uses, and the all-important Breakthrough Equation.

In this lesson you learn the definition of first time yield and rolled throughput yield. I demonstrate these using a simple example and how to calculate them.

14

Module 14: Making Sense of Cycle Time and Takt Time

Here, you will learn what manufacturing lead time is and how to calculate it. I define Takt Time and how to calculate it. I highlight how inconsistency will punish your business, and the benefits that six sigma will bring to your business.

Think about your options to get LSS Certified . . .

You could enroll on a rushed and crowded classroom course. Your instructor is under orders to force-feed the syllabus to you in three to four days flat. An incredibly high learning curve.

 

By the time you return to your office, the course and accommodation won't leave much change out of £2,000.


You could become one of my private coaching students at £600 per day, or take one of those £800-plus online courses full of boring bullet-driven slide shows.
