Six Sigma and Lean are business process improvement methodologies which, when used together under the name Lean Six Sigma, become a powerful strategy for business process transformation. This course explores how to identify, select and analyze Six Sigma projects in terms of inputs, outputs, and stakeholders. Specifically, it will cover the process for selecting a Six Sigma project, as well as the elements of process control, process design, and benchmarking.
