About this Presentation
This presentation shows how the six sigma methodology can be dramatically improved by integrating the TOC thinking processes (TP). Key learning points include: 1. How the TP is perfectly suited to fill the gaps in the six sigma methodology. 2. Where Seagate inserted the TP tools into the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) and DFSS (Design for six sigma) training. 3. Which methodology was used to teach students how to develop the trees? 4. Actual examples of training material, including an in-class case study and break out session that were developed to give students the opportunity to get hands-on experience with the trees to accelerate the learning curve. 5. Change management required to integrate the TP into six sigma. 6. Key benefits resulting from the use of the TP in six sigma. Benefits to attendees include: 1. Learn where and how to integrate the TP into six sigma’s DMAIC and DFSS methodology. 2. Learn which approach to developing the TP resulted in the greatest student comprehension. 3. Tangible results achieved from integrating the TP with six sigma.
