Although Lean and Six Sigma appear to be quite different, when used
together they have shown to deliver unprecedented improvements to
quality and profitability. The Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook: Tools and Methods for Process Acceleration
explains how to integrate these seemingly dissimilar approaches to
increase production speed while decreasing variations and costs in your
organization.

Presenting problem-solving tools you can use to
immediately determine the sources of the problems in your organization,
the book is based on a recent survey that analyzed Six Sigma tools to
determine which are the most beneficial. Although it focuses on the most
commonly used tools, it also includes coverage of those used a minimum
of two times on every five Six Sigma projects.

Filled with
diagrams of the tools you’ll need, the book supplies a comprehensive
framework to help you for organize and process the vast amount of
information currently available about Lean, quality management, and
continuous improvement process applications. It begins with an overview
of Six Sigma, followed by little-known tips for using Lean Six Sigma
(LSS) effectively. It examines the LSS quality system, its supporting
organization, and the different roles involved.

Identifying the
theories required to support a contemporary Lean system, the book
describes the new skills and technologies that you need to master to be
certified at the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (LSSBB) level. It also covers
the advanced non-statistical and statistical tools that are new to the
LSSBB body of knowledge.

Presenting time-tested insights of a
distinguished group of authors, the book provides the understanding
required to select the solutions that best fit your organization's aim
and culture. It also includes exercises, worksheets, and templates you
can easily customize to create your own handbook for continuous process
improvement.

Designed to make the methodologies you choose easy
to follow, the book will help Black Belts and Senseis better engage
their employees, as well as provide an integrated and visual process
management structure for reporting and sustaining continuous improvement
breakthroughs and initiatives.
