In today's competitive business environment, efforts to continuously improve both what we do and how we do it are essential to success, if not to survival. Six Sigma is an often-cited means to address that requirement. The Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control (DMAIC) roadmap is a significant component of almost any Six Sigma process improvement initiative. This session features "The Ping Pong Factory", an interactive training demonstration used by more than 185 organizations worldwide, to illustrate the elements of the DMAIC methodology and applications to improving a business process. Six seminar volunteers will work in the factory, but all session participants will be involved in developing the "lessons learned."
