Moreover, agile leadership aligns closely with a customer-centric mindset. It enables organizations to swiftly respond to and incorporate customer feedback. Explore our agile leadership training courses below for more insights.

Lean Six Sigma
What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is a set of techniques and tools for process improvement that was originally developed by Motorola in the mid-1980s. The term “Six Sigma” refers to a statistical concept that measures how far a given process deviates from perfection. The goal of Six Sigma is to improve process performance by identifying and removing the causes of defects and variability in manufacturing and business processes.
The core idea behind Six Sigma is to achieve a level of quality where the likelihood of producing a defect is extremely low—approximately 3.4 defects per million opportunities. The methodology uses a data-driven approach and follows a structured set of phases, typically referred to as DMAIC:
- 1. Define: Clearly articulate the problem, the goals, and the customer requirements.
- 2. Measure: Gather data and quantify the current performance of the process.
- 3. Analyse: Identify and analyse the root causes of defects or inefficiencies.
- 4. Improve: Implement changes to the process to address identified issues.
- 5. Control: Establish controls to sustain the improved process and monitor performance.
Six Sigma employs a variety of statistical and analytical tools, such as control charts, regression analysis, and hypothesis testing, to identify and quantify variation in a process. The methodology is widely used in manufacturing, but it has also been applied to various industries, including healthcare, finance, and services, to improve overall operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
The term “Six Sigma” itself represents a statistical measure of a process’s ability to produce outputs within specification limits. In a Six Sigma process, the goal is to have six standard deviations between the mean and the nearest specification limit, resulting in a process that is highly consistent and produces very few defects.
Why become Six Sigma certified?
Becoming Six Sigma certified can offer several benefits, both for individuals and organisations. Here are some reasons why you might want to pursue Six Sigma certification:
1. Career Advancement: Six Sigma certification can enhance your professional development and make you stand out in the job market. It is recognised globally and can open doors to new career opportunities. Many organisations value employees with Six Sigma credentials, especially for roles related to process improvement and quality management.
2. Skill Development: Six Sigma certification provides a structured framework for learning and applying statistical tools and methodologies for process improvement. It equips you with problem-solving skills, data analysis capabilities, and a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating defects or inefficiencies.
3. Increased Efficiency: With Six Sigma training, you’ll learn how to streamline processes and reduce variations, leading to increased efficiency and productivity. This can contribute to cost savings for organisations and make you a valuable asset to your team.
4. Quality Improvement: Six Sigma is fundamentally focused on improving the quality of processes and outputs. Certification indicates your commitment to delivering high-quality results, which is a crucial aspect in industries where quality standards are paramount.
5. Problem-Solving Skills: Six Sigma emphasises a data-driven approach to problem-solving. Certification equips you with the skills to analyse data, identify root causes, and implement effective solutions. These problem-solving skills are valuable across various industries and job roles.
6. Leadership Opportunities: Higher-level Six Sigma certifications, such as Black Belt or Master Black Belt, can qualify you for leadership roles in process improvement. These roles involve leading and managing projects, mentoring team members, and working closely with senior management.
7. Organisational Benefits: For employers, having certified Six Sigma professionals can lead to improved processes, reduced defects, and increased customer satisfaction. This, in turn, can positively impact the organisation’s bottom line and competitive position in the market.
8. Global Recognition: Six Sigma is a globally recognised methodology, and certification can be advantageous if you work in international or multinational companies. It provides a common language and set of tools for process improvement initiatives across borders.
Before pursuing Six Sigma certification, it’s important to consider your career goals, the industry you work in, and the specific level of certification that aligns with your objectives. Different levels of certification (e.g., Yellow Belt, Green Belt, Black Belt) cater to different roles and levels of expertise within the Six Sigma framework.
