Product Description:
Das Buch führt in Lean Six Sigma ein und zeigt, wie Lean Six Sigma dazu beiträgt, dass Unternehmen in einer Welt erfolgreich sind, in der die Kunden hohe Qualität und kurze Lieferzeiten zu minimalen Kosten erwarten. Die ersten sechs Kapitel befassen sich mit den Grundsteinen von Lean Six Sigma: Sie führen in das Grundvokabular und die Grundkonzepte ein. Die übrigen Kapitel widmen sich der Anwendung von Lean Six Sigma: Nach Erläuterung der Lean-Werkzeuge wird anhand von Fallstudien aus der Praxis gezeigt, welche Konzepte und Methoden erfolgreich in Unternehmen angewandt wurden, um die Arbeitsumgebung zu verbessern und wie die Leser die Methode im eigenen Unternehmen einführen und umsetzen können.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Great anticipation brings great disappoitment
Yes, you cannot judge a book by it's cover, but this book did not deliver on my expectations. If you are a senior manager, this book is for you as the vast majority of the book covers how you need to structure your organization, but not much real discussion of Lean or Six Sigma. This book provides a brief discussion of six sigma tools and almost no discussion of substance on Lean tools. It is a bad sell to tell a reader that a Black Belt should save $1,000,000 per year. After several lengthy discussions ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A well beyond decent introduction
Although the beginning of this book feels a little too "preachy" with a lot of arguments of why Lean Six Sigma is the best tool for ensuring maximum quality at highest speed with best profit, it actually is really good.

The author follows a red line throughout the book giving the reader no hard time following the concept of Lean Six Sigma. Compared to other books/guides of the same kind this is easily one of the better ones.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Written for a specific audience ..
"Lean Six Sigma: Combining Six Sigma Quality with Lean Speed" is not a how-to book written for actual front-line practitioners of the techniques. Instead, George's effort is expressly directed to the possibly skeptical CEO who may be considering implementing a Lean/6 Sigma effort and who needs to know a bit more detail. As he says on page 70:

"One of the goals of this executive overview is to provide adequate depth . . . such that a rational CEO could judge whether this initiative is worthy ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - LSS - The book does not marry them right.
I have read great books about Lean, classics like The Machine that Changed the World, The Toyota Way, Lean Thinking, etc., but this book fails to reach Lean's basics. The author approaches the subject without letting the reader grasp the Lean approach.
The Six Sigma side of the book idolizes black belts and focuses strictly on ROIC (return of invested capital), which may be short sighted on long term effects.
Lean Six Sigma is a powerful approach and can produce amazing results, but the book ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good structure and content with lots of errors
First, let me say that this book is well structured for managers and beginning practitioners who want to learn about Lean Six Sigma (LSS). Its content includes background, tools, and case studies to assist the reader with learning what LSS is all about. However, I seriously question whether this book was ever edited at all. To me, this normally would be a minor annoyance. With this book however, I noticed entire sentences that are non sequitor - so bad in fact, that one can tell that someone accidentally hit ...
