Six Sigma Black Belts are practitioners who lead customer experience transformational project efforts to improve customer satisfaction and business metrics by applying the appropriate tools to achieve greater process efficiency and effectiveness. The term “Black Belt” has roots from the martial arts which refers to a dedicated, extremely focused, well-trained, and expert individual in his/her field. These characteristics are similar for Six Sigma Black Belts because these individuals have received intense training to be highly skilled in the strategies, tactics, and application tools of Six Sigma and Lean.
Often called change agents, or process improvement drivers, the Black Belts are knowledgeable and highly skilled in the use of the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology, including Lean tools. They may guide and assist cross functional teams in pursuit of process improvement goals in the form of project leadership, training, facilitation, and analysis and advice on a variety of manufacturing and business processes.

Six Sigma Green Belts, like Black Belts, are practitioners who lead customer experience transformational project efforts to improve customer satisfaction and business metrics by applying the appropriate tools to achieve greater process efficiency and effectiveness. The difference between the two types of practitioners is that the Green Belts do not receive as great of depth and application of the Six Sigma tools and typically focus on shorter term process improvement projects. Green Belts do lead process improvement teams and/or may support a Black Belt who is leading a larger-scale cross-functional project. The Green Belts often make up more of a “critical mass” of process improvement practitioners whereas the Black Belt practitioners may represent only about 1% – 5% of the company’s population.
Often called change agents, or process improvement drivers, the Green Belts are knowledgeable and skilled in the use of the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology, including Lean tools. They may guide and assist teams in pursuit of process improvement goals in the form of project leadership, Black Belt project participation and analysis and advice on a variety of manufacturing and business processes within their functional realm.

Read More Testimonials”I have to say you would have to be one of the most inspirational people I have ever met. Your enthusiasm, and engagement with your [Green Belt] students is amazing and I know I am not alone in that thought. If you asked this student, who left school early to chase a dream for 15 years, that one day he would be doing University level studies, I would have laughed and said no way. I certainly didn’t think it would be possible to push myself like that, and I can confidently say it had a lot to do with the teacher, and I can’t thank you enough for that.

Six Sigma Yellow Belts are team members, often the “subject matter experts”, who are excellent contributors on a Lean/Six Sigma process improvement project team led by a Green or Black Belt that impacts the Yellow Belt’s functional area. Yellow Belts can also apply basic tools to areas for which they are responsible for improving process efficiency and effectiveness. Yellow Belts have a solid understanding of the Six Sigma methodology and the basic tools used to improve processes. Because of their Lean and Six Sigma basic tools knowledge, they are able to be effective team members who can assist the Green or Black Belt team leader with data collection and other key project requirements.

Our goal is to deliver exceptional training to your teams so that they may apply their learnings to real-company process improvement opportunities and problems to achieve measurable results.
Read More Testimonials”The session was well delivered, content was intensive but the breaks we were given more than made up for this, our expectations were taken down at the beginning of the session, referred to throughout the session and clarified at the end to ensure everyone got the most out of the session. This was a well presented, insightful day that I thoroughly enjoyed.
