Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt
What you'll learn
Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt is an introductory business management strategy aimed at enhancing process improvement and quality management. Originally developed by Motorola in 1986, Lean Six Sigma focuses on improving process outputs by identifying and eliminating defects and minimising variability in both manufacturing and business processes.
This methodology utilises a comprehensive set of quality management tools, including statistical methods, and establishes a specialised infrastructure of experts within the organisation, such as "Yellow Belts," "Green Belts," and "Black Belts."
Each Lean Six Sigma project follows a structured sequence of steps with clear financial targets, such as cost reduction or profit increase.
