Lean Sigma Green Belt
Lean-Sigma is the ground up integration of the Lean and Six Sigma
process improvement methodologies. The majority of Healthcare
processes aren't clearly defined, have no ownership, metrics and
merely evolved over time. Attendees learn the roadmaps and Green
Belt tools to dramatically improve processes that exhibit these
characteristics. Green Belts tend to work on smaller scoped projects
than Black Belts and their tool set is not as statistically based.
Nevertheless, Green Belts form the majority of the horsepower
in all Lean-Sigma deployments.
Successful deployments typically consist of Black Belts and
Green Belts running projects across the business. Allocate those
tricky projects to Black Belts, but rely on Green Belts to resolve
the majority of problem areas.
