E110: Lean Six Sigma Best Practices - Part 1
Update: 2024-10-09
Description
This is a list of best practices in process improvement I shared with students in the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) Executive MBA Program in Boca Raton, Florida last month. I compiled my top recommendations that they could take back to their company.
- Focused on building problem solving and
waste identification skill set of lowest-level employee - Psychological safety to discuss and solve problems
- Management horizontally across value
stream - Making decisions that are best for the system, not individual departments (vertical)
- Aligned and balanced metrics (two-way
communication or “catchball”) - Not just lagging financial metrics
