Identify, implement and evaluate an individual business project of your organization and compensate the course fee by its financial benefits.
You will travel along the DMAIC, guided by digital resources and a Master Black Belt as co-pilot. You will stop at each key Sigma tool and document it in your project storybook. These results are reviewed at each DMAIC milestone and serve as the basis for individual coaching and certification. Your completed storybook will demonstrate the operational excellence of your work and the benefits you gained. Our goal is for you to successfully complete your project, for the benefits of your project to exceed the course fee, and for you to develop the generic competence to successfully identify, implement, and evaluate future projects. To this end, we will guide you digitally and in person.
Our digital guidance provides videos, eBooks and tasks to introduce every step of a project. SigmaGuide software offers frameworks for each step, while Minitab provides quantitative tools. Documenting every step of the project in a traceable way is necessary to prove methodical competence and provide a basis for steering the project.
Our personal guidance supports your individual needs in three formats:
- DMAIC Phase Reviews will review the results of each phase, correct errors, show alternatives and suggest next steps.
- Project Coaching involves checking the suitability of the project topic and determining the focus (PreDEFINE), structuring the project and prioritizing the problems to be solved (DEFINE), prioritize your hypotheses and plan the collection of necessary data (MEASURE), optimizing the analysis of data, and reaching key milestones (ANALYSE). The IMPROVE phase typically does not require methodical support and the path through CONTROL is determined by ANALYSE.
- Green Belt Lectures: Our online Green Belt lectures reinforce topics covered in the course material, such as scientific observation, tool application, hypothesis generation, data collection, hypothesis testing (Minitab), and problem modeling - do's and don'ts.
In addition, you will acquire the basics of digital lean competence with our interactive process mining module. You can also use process mining for your project - if feasible.
