Stats only make up 10%* of what most Six Sigma dorks do. Some might push 50%**. The project management, facilitating, interviewing, training, motivation and other soft skill is the bread and butter*** of what they do.
Learn a few basic stat phrases**** and the rest you will learn as necessity demands.
A man among men – Stevo
* – Sample size of one
** – Usually losers
*** – Substitute you own national food staple
**** – Also helpful with the ladies (wink, wink)0March 26, 2009 at 3:41 pm #182791I would go as far as 20%. Although Analyze Phase goes quickly, it is still 1/5 of the project. Also it helps display where to focus your attention of improvement.
0March 26, 2009 at 3:55 pm #182792I’m ok with that. Let’s say somewhere between 10 and 20% (sample size = 2).
Variable N N* Mean SE Mean StDev Minimum Q1 Median Q3 Maximum
C1 2 0 15.00 5.00 7.07 10.00 * 15.00 * 20.00

We rarely start our Black belts with no statistics in their background with the basics. Central Composite Designs works much better as a starting point. If you follow that with Multiple Linear Regression they will catch right on.
There is a reason that the basics are called the basics.0March 27, 2009 at 6:28 am #182818
