The state of six sigma technology

I think the state six sigma is in is Texas.

Folks: [deleted promotion] With that said, we always evaluate the company’s LSS maturity, relative to the Team’s life cycle, not the tools they utilize. We would say…YES, SS has matured in terms of the tools BUT, the average LEan/SS Team, as an entity, is in its infancy, averaging less than FIVE years old. Enjoy! Greg

Just attempting to supply insight to the community in terms of maturity of the LSS Teams within corporations as opposed to the tools available…..they are two different threads.
Thought it might add some insight to the original question.
 

Obviuosly mentioning what we do in terms of leveraging SS technology in terms of maturity didn’t sit well with you, Stan.
As a LSS pratictioner, Univ faculty member, big 4 consultant, TOC Jonah…I attempt to “Give back” insights to SS community and others..with no expectations.
Stan, as a regular contributor to this forum, I’ll certainly do my best to keep it purely intellectual……..

What’s the exam paper or is this course home work?

Greg,
Your original post was nothing but self promotion. And round worded fluff at that. Your company offers software that uses SPC concepts applied to customer demand. Whoopie. We were doing that 20 years ago. As for your list of credentials, Jonahs and former IBM consultants are a dime a dozen.
Don’t promote your fluff, contribute to the discussion.

Sorry Ken .. I disagree with you.Greg was guilty of self-promotion which is against the etiquette of this forum. What Greg doesn’t seem to realize is who would use a company too cheap to pay for their advertising? Do you think this forum is funded by social welfare?While Stan can be short sometimes, he contributes a huge amount – as any long term member of this forum will confirm.If Greg would like to promote his company he can do so freely by writing an article and subjecting it to a peer review.No offense!

Ken,Sorry you did not understand the comment about Texas.How the state of Six Sigma is like the state of Texas -1) Neither is as big as they think they are.2) Both are filled with really brilliant people and really dumb people. And on the surface it is hard to tell which is which. 3) Both are in decline – just look at the duffus that is moving to Dallas in late January.4) Both are only powerful as part of a bigger system, they are not the system, even though the most jealous of both populations think they are.Greg was advertising, if he stops it I’ll let it alone. If he doesn’t I won’t.

Stan,Thanks for the explanation of your Texas analogy. I understand now. Good stuff.

Etiquette…this forum….please!!

Stan,
But when you take away the BS both can be a really nice place to live.
Just my opinion.

Try and use some logic.

Please give us an example of your logic.
