One Size Fits All? -- NOT!


One observation I've made about the Six Sigma implementation lifecycle is that the majority of benefits are not derived from Black Belts - they are generated at the Green Belt and Yellow Belt level, especially when the Six Sigma process becomes institutionalized.


Another observation is that Black Belts and Green Belts are interchangeable for about 80% of the organization's Six Sigma opportunities. Using a Green Belt and Yellow Belt approach addresses many of the constraints of smaller and mid-sized companies and allows them to implement at a more manageable pace.


These organizations become just as technically skilled as their larger company counterparts; in fact, many are outperforming their larger customers in terms of both financial results and cultural transformation.
