Description: Process performance improvement requires a fundamental set of analytical and statistical tools, along with the critical-thinking skills to apply them effectively in the correct sequence during a project.

Additionally, the course provides a detailed Lean Six Sigma roadmap for leading a process improvement project from codifying the business problem, understanding baseline state, identifying root causes to performance shortfalls, developing and implementing the solution through to sustaining improved performance.
