Description
Lean Six Sigma is a methodology based on a collaborative team effort to improve performance by systematically eliminating waste and reducing variability.
The level of mastery of the Six Sigma methodology is categorized by belt colors: White, Yellow, Green, Black and Master Black Belt.
But before you begin your journey into the world of Lean and Six Sigma, you must understand what that world is. In addition, the methodology is practical; having knowledge without real practical application is meaningless. Therefore, it is very important to be productive at the very beginning of the journey.
The course was created to address these two goals. It should give both a basic understanding of the methodology and show the practical application of a number of tools.
In creating this introductory course we took into account more than 10 years of experience in implementing and using Lean SixSigma tools in international companies and chose the most important, in our opinion, aspects of the methodology.
Numerous examples from real Lean Six Sigma projects were used in this course.
At the beginning of the course you will learn the basic principle of PDCA and its use in practice.
Next, you will explore the A3 project, learning not only the methodology of completing it, but also practical examples.
Then, you will get acquainted with the Lean methodology and the 8 types of wastes. You will learn how to identify wastes in the workplace and learn about ways to eliminate them, you will learn what the 6M and 5G principle is. Do you know what Kaizen is? If not, you will.
This will be followed by a big block focused on problem solving, finding the root causes of problems. You will get acquainted with such a tool as the 5 Why and you will understand that it can be used not only at work.
The implementation of the Lean Six Sigma methodology in any company is impossible without organizing the workspace in accordance with the principles of 5S.
Any successful project is impossible without data analysis and in the next block we will talk about it. We will also study the main types of graphs and learn their specifics.
This will be followed by a big block Six Sigma and an introduction to variability. The DMAIC methodology will be studied on the example of a real project.
And the final block will be the creating of a sustainability model.
