Alignment with top management on objectives and priorities is essential for the successful deployment of Lean and Quality improvement initiatives.

This is where the rubber meets the road, and the action truly happens! For over 25 years, I have been facilitating Kaizen events, which are a key aspect of my Lean coaching approach. It is what I enjoy the most about my job, as these Kaizen events play a crucial role in driving quality improvement.
Kaizen events require close follow-up and sometimes additional support to achieve the expected results and extend these improvements to other areas. To achieve sustainable results, additional Lean coaching sessions may be necessary.
This is an introductory training to Six Sigma, similar to Yellow Belt training, that will get you prepared to become a team member of a Six Sigma Project. There is also a summary version for Managers.
