Introduction

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.

“Six Sigma has forever changed General Electric”

 Jack Welch
