About the Book

Lean and Mean Process Improvement is a straight forward presentation of the tools of Lean Six Sigma process improvement. It touches on market analysis, team building, easy to use graphical tools and easy to understand explanations of statistical tools. This approach is not by accident. Process improvement, including Lean Six Sigma, has too long been focused on corporate wide roll-outs and "quality programs". That approach to improving business performance is based more upon words than deeds, more upon supervision than leadership. Lean and Mean Process Improvement is written to be used by people at all organizational levels. This bottom-up approach will help senior management to understand processes "out on the floor" and how they impact the customer chain all the way to the end user. This alignment will help make Lean Six Sigma rollouts more successful The author wants one very important concept to evolve from this book. Process improvement, Lean Six Sigma or otherwise, can and should be fun and satisfying. So let's get started! Note from the author. I have been involved in process improvement for over 17 years. My experience gives me a unique perspective on how to import process improvement into an organization's culture in a way that will stick. This book is designed to help the individual improve their margin at the office, cubicle, and departmental level. As we all know, these are the locations where the rubber meets the road. Good luck and have fun.
