 Thinking
about Six Sigma, but worried about the exhorbitant costs?
I give the Small Business Guerrilla Guide to my Six Sigma Black
Belts and Green Belts as a practical and pragmatic guide to implementing
what they've just learned. Additionally, I use the book to reinforce the
idea that you can get real results quickly without being a slave to any
particular methodology or tool.
- Dan Feliciano - GE Healthcare Lean Six Sigma Rock Star
The Small Business Guerrilla Guide to Six Sigma will show you why
the conventional "big business" strategy for implementing Six Sigma is wrong
for small business. So how can small businesses out fox the big ones? By
doing the opposite:
- To get big benefits fast, set big hairy audacious goals, not incremental
ones
- To boost return on investment, narrow your focus
- To increase adoption of Six Sigma, reduce the number of people involved
- To accelerate Six Sigma get commitment from your informal CEOs, not
the formal ones
- To maximize learning, minimize training
I recently purchased the Guerrilla Guide to Six Sigma. We are
a small company evaluating Six Sigma for a quality initiative. So far,
the smaller the book [I've read about Six Sigma], the more valuable it
is. The Guerrilla Guide is the smallest so far….
According to the SBA, small businesses:
- provide 75 percent of the net new jobs added to the economy
- represent 99.7 percent of all employers
- employ 50.1 percent of the private work force
- provide 40.9 percent of private sales in the country.
- account for 39.1 percent of jobs in high technology sectors in 2001
- account for 52 percent of private sector output in 1999
- represent 97 percent of all U.S. exporters
If Six Sigma is truly yielding huge savings for the companies
that use it, then it stands to reason that small businesses need Six Sigma
in order to achieve the kind of cost savings and increased profitability
enjoyed by large-company Six Sigma practitioners. - Dirk Dusharme.
