Best Guide

Gives a brief definition of the notion of Six Sigma and its key features and advantages, and proceeds to the application of Six Sigma techniques for business needs.

I just finished listening to it, a truly magical piece of the fast-paced teaching of Lean six sigma procedures. Worth suggesting!

Improve quality and eliminate defects

I have a hard time listening to a book this dry after listening to 2 seconds lean by Harry Altman.

good quality

Great resource. Had several real world examples but I wish there had been more. I found it very helpful.

ideal book

Found it very useful about six sigma to become acclimated to the terminology of lean.

Step by step process

Great concepts that I will use. Now I am ready for a six sigma, it is step by step process. Thanks to the author.

Step by Step process book

If you are examining Six Sigma, you should consider adding this book to your arsenal.The most ideal way I have figured out how to practice Six Sigma

helpful resources

I used the study guide as a source of core knowledge for a study group in my work setting. I felt the information was comprehensive. I supplemented material with isixsigma sources and other materials. I felt that someone new to six sigma may struggle with owning some of the concepts associated with the measure phase. Otherwise the other phases and background on DMAIC and Lean principles were clearly explained. I would recommend the purchase of this book.

helped me

This has helped me understand the six sigmas and how they work Great read if you want to see the benefits it had on companies.

amazing

Lean Six Sigma: Quickstart Guide is an excellent business management model, and will walk you through the aspects of managing your organization step-by-step.

I was interested in this audio book because many employers have recently implemented Lean Strategies in the workplace, and I like to keep up. I was curious to find out what the core management concepts were that they taught in this book. I enjoyed the .pdf download that accompanies the audio book. It allowed quick reference material so I didn't have the need to take notes.
