Leaders and
managers of organisations are continually challenged by both the
need for success now, and to then sustain that success into the
future. There is a constant stream of "new ideas" of how to get and
stay at the top. Six Sigma maybe considered as one of these "new
ideas" but looking closely will show a significant difference. Six
Sigma is a comprehensive and flexible system for achieving,
sustaining and maximising business success. Six Sigma is uniquely
driven by a close understanding of customer needs, disciplined use
of facts, data and statistical analysis, and diligent attention to
managing, improving and reinventing business processes. |
