The Certified Six Sigma Master Black Belt Handbook

Organizations are continuously trying to improve by reducing cost, increasing customer satisfaction, and creating an environment of empowered employees who continuously strive for excellence in each process and product. In much the same way, governments are continuously required to do “more with less,” enhance budget and organizational performance, and identify innovative ways to increase their impact. There are challenges to applying the Lean-Six Sigma (LSS) tools in the public sector. Examples of these challenges include hierarchical environments, a lack of common goals, and the complexity of working in the public sector.

The Joy of Lean

Has your organization tried Lean already? If so, you surely see and feel the Joy of Lean in your workplace now, right? Don't worry. If you're not quite to joy yet, you're not alone.

The useful ideas of eliminating waste and driving greater efficiency can pick up a negative spin, with perceptions of job cuts, employees doing more with less, and managers squeezing more productivity from each person. None of that sounds very joyful. But it doesn't have to be that way. This book will sho...

It asks you to consider a complex environment with multiple classes interacting between functional units with requirements that are perceived as exclusive and uni...
