The purpose of the Green Belt qualification is to confirm that a participant has sufficient knowledge and understanding of the Lean Six Sigma process improvement methodology and practice to be able to achieve significant improvements in performance and quality, either working as a team member in a large project or working alone as a junior project manager.
Participants will gain the skills to:
- Analyse their organisation’s processes to identify the priority issues leading to waste and inefficiency
- Deeply investigate and understand the systemic root causes for these issues
- Understand what process improvement tools are available and how to best apply them to eliminate the source of the problem and drive customer value.
Effective Green Belts are capable of implementing significant change within their organisation. Participants will also learn how to manage people through change, how to lead an improvement project team, and how to engage with enterprise leadership.
The Continuous Improvement Maturity Model will be introduced which charts the necessary changes organisations need to make, to move towards World Class Operational performance (Structured > Managed > Predictable > Capable > World Class).
