Is Six Sigma Still Relevant in a Dynamically Changing World
Is Six Sigma Still Relevant in a Dynamically Changing World
"With the growing level of dissatisfaction with programs such as Six Sigma, the question that needs to be asked is quite simply this . . . what are the key elements of a successful process improvement initiative?
This white paper focuses on the possible reasons behind the alarming number of failed or struggling programs, as well as providing insight into why Deming's System of Profound Knowledge establishes a meaningful foundation upon which Forrest Breyfogle's Integrated Enterprise Excellence methodology consistently delivers superior results."
Excerpt from "The Key Principles behind the Integrated Enterprise Excellence" White Paper (January 2009).
When I first began work on this white paper my intention was to discover why, beneath the veneer of excellence, there appeared to be a growing disenchantment with programs such as Six Sigma, Lean and even closer to home relative to supply chain practice, SCOR.
