Programme Director: Prof. U Dinesh Kumar
Venue: IIMB Campus

Introduction
Six Sigma is now often thought of as the new mantra in the corporate world. The evolution of Six Sigma has morphed from a method or set of techniques to a movement focused on business process improvement. Business processes are transformed through the successful implementation of Six Sigma. A recent study by DynCorp has revealed that Six Sigma has clearly emerged as the most effective quality improvement technique in the history. Although Six Sigma originated in the manufacturing industry to reduce the wastes due to manufacturing process deficiencies, it is now used by almost all industries including service industries such as health care management.
Six Sigma was originally developed at Motorola in the 1980s for production processes with an objective to eliminate waste. In the mid-1990s, Jack Welch, the then Chief Executive Office of the General Electric (GE) proclaimed that GE was making great savings through Six Sigma strategy. During the first five years of the program, the company increased its productivity gains by over 266% and improved operating margins from 14.4% to 18.4%. Other major American firms then became Six Sigma devotees. Impressive business performance achieved by companies like Motorola, General Electric, Black and Decker, Honeywell, ABB and Bombardier can be attributed to Six Sigma strategy.
Six Sigma implementation requires extensive knowledge on quantitative techniques and management strategies. Based on the Six Sigma skill level, resource persons in Six Sigma are called Six Sigma Green Belt, Six Sigma Black Belt and Six Sigma Master Black Belt. The objective of this course is to provide Six Sigma Green Belt training. Green Belts play a crucial role in Six Sigma projects to improve business processes.
