Lean Six Sigma Certification
Lean Six Sigma is a method that depends on the group effort in improving the performance and
consistently excluding waste. The concept and the methodology was first published in 2002 in a
book called Lean Six Sigma: Combining Six Sigma with Lean Speedby Michael George and
Robert Lawrence. Eight kinds of waste are handled in Lean Six Sigma: Time, Inventory, Motion,
Waiting, Over production, Over processing, Defects, and Skills. All of them are abbreviated as
'TIMWOODS'. Lean Six Sigma utilizes the DMAIC phase that is similar to that of Six Sigma.
DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control. In this competitive fast world
every organization, company or business wants their processes to be near to error-free.
Professionals with lean six sigma certification are thus in continuous demand.
