Ever wonder why some Lean Six Sigma deployments achieve significant ROI and others struggle? Join me as we explore what our team uncovered in talking with high achieving deployments, as well as the critical issues impacting those that weren’t seeing the same results. Our team conducted a benchmarking study with companies large and small to learn more about current company challenges and keys to success. Get a better understanding of how strategies change over time, how well other organizations are doing with culture change, where the highest value projects are internally, and what tips veterans can offer for those getting started. This presentation will include findings in the broad categories of (1) strategy, (2) projects, (3) people, (4) culture, (5) types of deployment/methodologies, and (6) getting started.
