Lean vs. Six Sigma Webinar 1/14/2025 10:00 AM - 1/14/2025 11:00 AM

Mon, 25 Nov 2024 09:56:27 GMT

Lean… Six Sigma… Lean Sigma… You've probably heard of each and might have used the terms interchangeably. Lean and Six Sigma are two of the most prominent process improvement methodologies that organizations use across industries. Although they both have similar philosophies, understanding what makes them different will allow an organization to selectively use the correct tool and get the best benefit. Lean Sigma is perceived as a hybrid of the two but is most effective if each methodology is discreetly understood. This seminar will explain the key similarities between Lean and Six Sigma and show the theoretical and practical distinctions between them. It will also help you get an understanding of what is the best fit for your organization.
