Lean Six Sigma for Business Leaders 

Many organizations are doing their best to survive safely and economically during a pandemic. The organization depends on its leadership on how to react and in which direction it needs to go. During an economic crisis, cost reduction activities become a knee-jerk reaction. Cash becomes the king again. Tightening the budget by reducing operational expenses, canceling external engagements, stopping training, and reorganizing the structure to minimize labor costs are everyday actions to free up cash. Although these efforts are well-intentioned, poor planning and execution can result in short-term benefits that ultimately do more harm than good. This is often due to a lack of customer focus and a decline in service quality.

Program Overview

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a strategy that supports the short-term need of the organization to survive safely and to rapidly reduce cost and looking at long-term road to transform into an agile organization for high performance and sustainable growth. LSS is a marriage of two compelling leading-edge methodologies. Lean has been in existence since the post-war era focuses on waste reduction, and Six Sigma started since the late ’80s, which focuses on output variation reduction. These two separate methodologies were combined as we enter the 21st century. Many companies subscribed to the LEAN principles and methods. More than 80% of the top 500 Fortune companies in the US are into Lean Six Sigma to drive cost reduction, productivity improvement, and revenue growth through effective quality management.
