The Myths of Six Sigma

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to do some thinking around the myths associated with Six Sigma. I'd like to brainstorm as many myths as possible, so that I may prepare a response when these myths are voiced in my Black Belt's teams. I would greatly appreciate your help on this forum in presenting additional myths. Here's what I have so far:

• Six Sigma is the same as TQM
• Six Sigma is too statistical for Transactional processes, it should only be used in manufacturing
• Six Sigma projects take too long to complete
• Six Sigma is too complicated for our business

Thanks!
Carol
