Six Sigma can do a lot for your business. It improves effectiveness and efficiency of your business.

A business organization has lots of processes. Once the management decides to implement Six Sigma, they will be doing several jobs which includes identifying and improving upon several processes in the business.

 What is a process and its role in Six Sigma

According to George Eckes, The author of “Six Sigma For Everyone”, from business perspective a process1 is a series of 20-30 most important steps in a business.

 Management identifies the processes in business and the average sigma level of the processes. Some of the low sigma level processes have direct impact upon company’s business objectives. Management’s objectives are to identify such low performing processes.

 Then teams work on these processes with some specialized tools and concepts to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of those processes. Work is done on these processes until the a pre-decided level of effectiveness is achieved.

 Power of Six Sigma

  1. Once Six Sigma is implemented the following are the major achievements of the business and organization.
  2. After successful implementation of Six Sigma, the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the business process is improved. This all takes about six to nine months.
  3. It would bring job security of employees.
  4. It would provide  job satisfaction to employees as they feel important as being process owners and champions.
  5. Skill levels of employees increase. Which in turn help them to achieve promotions and raises within same organization.
  6. It helps to unleash the power of creativity in employees, because Six Sigma is beyond work. Its a way of life. So, employees work with their interest from within rather than working with external push from upper management.
  7. It would help to reduces stress levels in employees, because they would be working in smooth, effective and efficient environment.
  8. The profits earned by business are improved and sustained.
  9. Now managers are no longer managers. They are envisioned leaders.
