Training for Perfection
EXPECTATION!
Six Sigma is like that old Wella Balsam shampoo commercial: She told two friends, and they told
two friends, and so on.As Black Belt project leaders multiply and train more people, and those
people get involved in projects, the financial impact is exponential, in our view.
Writes Jennifer Pokrzywinski, an analyst with Morgan Stanley, Dean Witter, Discover & Co.
(Report on Business Magazine, October 1997)

Six Sigma initiative has become a rage.
Every organization wants to implement Six Sigma approach in anticipation of improving market
penetration and organizational speed at the same time reducing cost of doing business.
Six Sigma is being perceived to take people to higher level of performance with fewer mistakes
while making it a strategic option for transforming an organization. Six Sigma is a Program to be
owned and led by leadership orienting strategically towards market place and customer
satisfaction.
Six Sigma is described as a methodology to improve business processes and is supposed to
provide metrics that strives for near perfection.
Six Sigma embodies a disciplined, data-driven analytical approach for reducing variation in any
process and thereby eliminating defects.

BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING

Projects remain open much longer than the anticipated 3-6 months,
some stuck in an early phase of Six Sigma Life
MBB/BBs/GBs are unable to get cooperation (from functions and
departments) in collecting data, identifying root causes, etc.
Teams loose focus part of the way through their Projects
Successes with Projects in one department or function are not replicated
in others
Managers resist assigning high performers to Black Belt jobs, keeping
these performers for real work instead
Managers see Six Sigma as competing with other improvement
initiatives, and are reluctant to participate
MBBs/BBs/GBs do not have a platform to share their experiences
