Profit Signals: How Evidence Based Decisions Power Six Sigma Breakthroughs

Description

Profit Signals is a pioneering Six Sigma work written and published by two internationally recognized Master Black Belts. The authors present a unique view on how executives, managers and Six Sigma practitioners can use evidence to make better, more profitable decisions. Profit Signals details the key links between today’s breakthrough project methodology, bottom line business results, financial modeling, spreadsheet simulation, vector analysis, applied science, and n-dimensional hyperspace. Case studies, which include finance, manufacturing, governmental services, and health care, show how a Six Sigma breakthrough project can result in savings of $100,000 to $1 million. Using the authors' expertise and vector analysis methodology, Profit Signals breaks new ground for leaders who want to initiate a breakthrough improvement system, strengthen a robust Six Sigma program, or revitalize an initiative that is floundering on the rocks of a Black Belt bureaucracy. Simulation and Crystal Ball are mentioned to a small extent in the chapter on Evidence-Based Six Sigma and in the case studies. Crystal Ball software is not packaged with this book
