How long have you been trying to find a way to improve the processes that you use to operate your business? As a CEO, you have been trying to eliminate the non-value added work, which wastes time and productivity. You thought you found a solution and “fixed” a problem or process, just to find you had slipped back and needed to “fix” it again. Then, to compound the problem, your employees end the workday knowing they spent too much time fixing mistakes or redoing work. Now your business is in a downward spiral that you feel is getting out of control. In those difficult times, it’s hard to take a step back and systematically solve a problem or understand the root cause of an inefficient process. However, that is exactly what’s needed to achieve consistent process improvement.

Six Sigma is a methodology used to improve business processes by utilizing statistical analysis rather than guesswork. This proven approach has been implemented within a myriad of industries to achieve hard and soft money savings, while increasing customer satisfaction. The methodology combined with an empowered workforce is leading to improved customer service and business process. Six Sigma is a commitment to ongoing process management, systematic process improvement, and culture change. It needs to start at to the top of the enterprise. Senior leaders need to lead by example. The short and long-term benefits warrant the time and energy required to embrace this methodology.
