When facing the productivity challenge, it’s important that you have the right tools at your disposal.
Lean Six Sigma is a methodology used extensively in IiE organisations aiming to eliminate costs, enhance productivity, develop creativity and innovation in organisational improvement. It forms an important part of the IiE Toolkits and Approaches.
Establishing what’s needed for Lean Six Sigma success is selecting, prioritising and delivering the right improvement projects to deliver What Matters Most. Of great importance too is acknowledging where this methodology and desired approach fits in to the overall picture of the strategic development of your organisation. The latter is identified from focusing the lens of the Investors in Excellence Standard on the business and ensures that the capability developed fits in to the business goals and aspirations.
IiE therefore ensures you have a complementary platform, whether your wish is to do the training first then look at its business fit, or vice versa. A key aspect of our approach is to be your critical friend, consistently challenge the way things are done and seek every opportunity to identify waste and inefficiencies so that you become as productive as possible.
