I get so tired about "#LeanSigma" mistruths about Lean.. 1) Lean doesn't use data (wrong)… more tweets to follow
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) August 22, 2016
2) #LeanSigma says #Lean is only about speed, cost, or efficiency & doesn't address quality — that's dead wrong
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) August 22, 2016
3) #LeanSigma says #Lean doesn't address or reduce variation — wrong!
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) August 22, 2016
@MarkGraban you should put across another 4 point what #lean does wrong: that do not focus on customer satisfaction or experience – wrong!☺️
