Presented from the perspective of practitioners, researchers and academics, The Ten Commandments of Lean Six Sigma serves as a practical guide for senior managers and executives who want to achieve operational and service excellence in various manufacturing, service and public sector organizations.

The authors, who are practitioners, researchers, and academics who specialize in quality and continuous improvement in the UK, India, and US, delineate 10 key principles of Lean Six Sigma for operational and service excellence in manufacturing, service, and public sector organizations of any size. After an introduction to Lean Six Sigma as a methodology for achieving efficiency and excellence in business processes, chapters outline the elements: alignment of Lean Six Sigma with organizational strategy, project selection and prioritization, selecting top talent for the execution of projects, leadership, effective training and design of curriculum for different Lean Six Sigma roles, the development of a reward and recognition system, sustainability, linking Lean Six Sigma with organizational learning and innovation, linking it with green and environmental sustainability, and moving beyond Lean Six Sigma to integrate it with other processes and methods.

Recenzijos

I am delighted to finally see a well-structured Lean Six Sigma book that focuses on the behavioural and cultural necessities for successful Lean Six Sigma programs rather than on the use of tools and techniques. The authors have drawn upon their vast experiences working with Operational Excellence programs across diverse industries to bring us the absolute must-have components for success. -- John Dennis, Chairman, International Lean Six Sigma Institute, UK I would recommend this book as it captures the essence of results-based references to the tools and concepts required in a structured way to achieve the process of implementing the leverage of Lean Six Sigma to maximise efficiencies and maintain the managerial process. Every business needs to revisit and discover how to propel your organisation to new levels of competitive success this book will support and guide you. -- Michael Mitchell, Managing Director, Bespoke Clinical Care Ltd, UK The Ten Commandments of Lean Six Sigma brings together the leading authors of our time and presents a unique guide for any leadership team as they embark on their LSS journey. The final chapter on the future of LSS is a must read for established LSS practitioners. -- Stephen G Anthony, Master Black Belt and CEO of the Institute of Six Sigma Professionals, Wales, UK In today's competitive world, any firm needs to be conscious of quality, cost and timely delivery. To achieve this, the book The Ten Commandments of Lean Six Sigma will be a very useful guide for practitioners. The book addresses all that is required by the practitioners to implement LSS in their respective organizations. This book aims to transfer the knowledge that is available with the academic world for its practical application in the competitive business world. -- S Navaneetha Krishnan, Senior Deputy General Manager at Warship Design Centre, Larsen & Toubro and Commander (Retd), Indian Navy The authors experience with training in both academic and industrial settings are evident, as the methods prescribed for preparing individuals for LSS execution are applicable to both scenarios and will likewise prepare the reader for either. They understand that it is not enough to be technically proficient, in order to be a successful LSS practitioner, and they offer solid advice in the critically-required soft skills, as well. This book will help any organization preparing to embark upon the continuous improvement journey. -- David W. Hoffa, PhD, ASQ CSSBB, External Process Engineering Manager, Johnson & Johnson This book is definitely a new piece of art in Lean Six Sigma literature! The authors present an exceptional combination of rigorous literature review and solid pragmatic recommendations addressing critical topics in Lean Six Sigma from top to bottom. Content is brilliantly presented on an understandable language and the sequencing of commandments flows smoothly and logically in a way that you just can“t stop reading. -- Marcelo Machado Fernandes, PhD, ASQ Certified Master Black Belt, Lean Six Sigma Consultant at FCV and SETA, Consultant at Minitab LLC, Founder of MF Treinamentos (MF Operational Excellence), Brazil
