IEE Lean Six Sigma Graduate
Workshop
OVERVIEW
This “sharpen the saw” workshop provides
Black Belts and others with new Integrated Enterprise
Excellence (IEE) techniques that can help their
organization increase benefits by going beyond
Lean Six Sigma and the Balanced Scorecard. This
workshop describes how organizations can transition
from a push for project creation system to a metric
driven enterprise management system that pulls
for the most important projects at the right time;
e.g., projects that address the current constraint
of the system. Attendees walk through the IEE
project execution roadmap (P-DMAIC), which truly
integrates Six Sigma and Lean tools. Attendees
learn how to use IEE to transition an organizational
firefighting culture to a data-driven enterprise.
This course illustrates how satellite-level and
30,000-foot-level metrics can be used to take
control charts to a new level of applicability
and how these techniques can be used to create
new and more effective business scorecards and
IEE dashboard metrics.
MASTER
THE TOOLS
This workshop is built around the techniques described
in the new three volume Integrated Enterprise
Excellence Series of books, including roadmaps
and drill down details. IEE adapts the traditional
DMAIC (define-measure-analyze-improve-control)
roadmap to execution at both the project level
(P-DMAIC) and the enterprise level (E-DMAIC),
taking established best practices to the next
level through a true integration of Six Sigma
and Lean methodologies. The course also imparts
proficiency in advanced analytical tools that
help the student resolve complex and atypical
problems. These tools help attendees improve their
project performance and their ability to impact
the enterprise system as a whole.

ONLY ONE COURSE CURRICULUM
With the blending of Lean and Six Sigma
along with other improvement tools, a holistic
approach to improvement is used in the course.
These skills provide the Black Belt with the ability
to succeed in any business area. Why focus only
on manufacturing, transactional, or other subset
of the tools, when every organization has aspects
of each type? Manufacturing organizations have
opportunities for improvement in HR, sales, and
procurement, which are transactional work, while
transactional organizations produce papers and
reports and manage inventories, which are analogous
to manufacturing processes. Every Black Belt in
the IEE system is provided with the skills to
be successful in all improvement facets.
TOOLBOX
REWARDS
This workshop teaches IEE tools and the
thought process that goes along with wise selection
and application of the best tools. Through the
detailed IEE roadmaps, the course material, and
real-life workshop discussionsa thought process
is provided for both integrating and using Six
Sigma and Lean tools wisely in both transactional
and manufacturing environments. At the end of
the course, attendees understand, comprehend,
and can apply the following:
- Enhanced
communication tools to gain executive management
buy in, presenting IEE as an enterprise-level
business management system, not just a project-focused
operational enhancement system;
- Effective
integration of Lean Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints
(TOC), and other enterprise analysis best practices;
- Selection
of the right statistical tools in driving effective
utilization of metrics and correct activities;
- Ability
to recognize and use the best available advanced
improvement tools.
