Goal(s):
- You will know the requirements for a successful implementation of the Six Sigma – Methodology in your company. You are ware that Six Sigma will not be chosen in every problem situation and you will be able to decide in which situations
it’s needed. - You realize that Six Sigma is definitely necessary if you have an important process problem and the root cause is not known, and you experience that such systematic projects are much more successful than the traditional way of working which consists of „Try & Error“ mostly.
- You will have learnt all of the important tools and methods and you’re able to apply them in a Six Sigma Black Belt Project, also outside of your direct environment of responsibility.
- You can handle standardised tools of Project management in order to manage and guide your Black Belt Project team successfully. You will be able to close a project within a given time frame.
- You will be able to achieve all of the goals which have been defined for your Black Belt Project and the expected Benefit will be delivered. This will be possible because you have investigated the significant root cause and developed a causal chain from the top project KPI to the true causes..
- You will learn tools for modern data analysis and you will be able to apply them in different business situations in order to solve problems. You will get also an overview about some possibilities for a usage of data that are stored in process control systems or if you have an access to historical data..
Target group:
CEO Level; Manager of business units; Leaders with an ambition for change; people who are involved in OPEX initiatives; Leaders for Industry 4.0 implementation; suppliers who need to start Six Sigma; customers who require Six Sigma; specialists in Data Mining and Process Mining
Training contents:
Each candidate will select a Six Sigma -Project in his company and start to work on it parallel to the training, already…
It is also possible that 2 candidates take one project if they belong to the same company. Selection can be supported by the trainer. The trainer may give some advices regarding tool application… The trainer takes also the role of a Coach and you may ask him for a support during this period. This Coaching is limited to smaller topics but if you need additional help we can arrange an intensive Coaching.
