Overview
Lean Six Sigma combines the best practices of Six Sigma and Lean concepts.
Using Six Sigma methodologies enable teams to achieve radical process improvement and applying lean principles lead to waste reduction.
Lean Six Sigma is a proven business strategy that seeks to improve measurable results and to enhance the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects (errors) and minimizing variability in business processes.
Lean Six Sigma is increasingly being used by organization to drive innovation, business growth, operational efficiency and service delivery.
Green Belts form the backbone and are a vital component to any successful Lean Six Sigma program. They support black belts, often lead projects independently and support their team of yellow belts.
Green Belts fulfil the requirement of a larger critical mass of trained professionals required to achieve breakthrough level results and culture change.
Processworks Green Belt training offers a challenging and robust curriculum. The goal is to develop high capability Green Belts.
