What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is a process improvement approach. Six Sigma was invented by Motorola in 1985. This approach has stood the test of time and is still widely used by organizations after 35 years of its invention.
This process improvement methodology can be used in any industry. Six Sigma's focus is improving processes to save organizations money, so more and more companies are using this approach. Some companies formally implement it, while others use it in an informal way.
Learning and mastering this approach gives a definite employment advantage.
Six Sigma has saved organizations billions of dollars in costs, improved quality, reduced waste, improved consistency, and improved customer satisfaction.
