To make Six Sigma work for you, you need to have individuals who can drive change and create a design for implementation. Enter your Six Sigma Champions. These individuals are not only crucial for beginning the move to Six Sigma, but also to serve as mentors to the Black Belts and as liaisons to the executive level.
Goals:
This workshop will introduce you to Six Sigma as a management system. You will learn the philosophy, practices, theories, and application dynamics involved in Six Sigma so you can lead the improvement of important business processes. We will also show explicitly how Six Sigma can be used to drive costs down, improve time-to-market, improve quality, and increase revenue. These benefits will also be presented along with the costs associated with Six Sigma.
Leadership skills and management strategies are also a major focus. You will be given the skills needed to organize for successful implementation and to motivate teams for Six Sigma so you can help transfer and reinforce the fundamental Six Sigma strategies, tactics, and tools throughout your organization.
Description:
In order to prepare you for the Champion role, we will help you to develop the underlying philosophy, supporting theory, and conventional practices for Six Sigma while discussing deployment strategies and what it takes to establish the organizational infrastructure for Six Sigma. You will also learn the roles and responsibilities of Six Sigma community members (Executives, Champions, Black Belts, and Green Belts). Along with guidance on how to select Green Belts and Black Belts, we will also provide insight into influencing the culture change within your company.
Additionally you will learn the basics of process management, including how to identify progress indicators, set performance targets, and maintain ongoing process control plans.
