How to use these books?

The structure of this book is based on the LSSA Skill set for Lean and Six Sigma Black Belt. All of the techniques described in these Skill set will be reviewed in this book. The Lean elements will be discussed in chapter 1 to 6. The Six Sigma elements will be discussed in chapters 7 and 8. We also advise you to use the accompanying exercise book with exercises and answer keys. In case you would like to subscribe for LSSA certification, we advise you to review the criteria described in Appendix A and B. Those who would like to apply Lean at the Yellow or Green Belt level are advised to read the specific book within the ‘Climbing the Mountain’ series.

This book can be used for two purposes. Firstly, it acts as a guide for Black Belts undertaking a Lean or Six Sigma project following the DMAIC roadmap (‘Define – Measure – Analyze – Improve – Control’). Secondly, it is a guide for (Master) Black Belts that are involved in improving the overall performance of the organization and to lead the continuous improvement transformation process.
