Basic Six Sigma Team Management (managed at both organization and team levels)
Organization level where senior leaders/council set direction and hold teams accountable.
High-Level Leadership sets Six Sigma goals, aligns with business, reviews results, provides resources, rewards success, and communicates results.
Sponsor/Champion is a senior leader who supports, funds, coaches, and oversees the project.
Also helps with resources, politics, scope, and leadership support.
Team levels manage the actual improvement projects.
They should be tailored to the specific project and process.
Basic team needs includes a Six Sigma leader, process owner, process expert, and budget/accounting.
Types of members:
Regular members (participate throughout the project), ad hoc members (join when specific expertise is needed), and resource members (join when specialized resources or advice are needed).
Regular members have team member selection, where the people with the right knowledge, skills, data access, teamwork and available time are assigned roles.
Process Owner - responsible for the process and receives the final solution. Maintains controls after implementation.
They understand the curent process, customers, and outgoing controls.
Six Sigma Leader - Usually a Black Belt who leads to team analysis, DMAIC, and project decisions.
Project Manager - supports the leader with schedules, documentation, and follow-up
Other Roles
Master Black Belt - coaches multiple teams, supports Black Belts, and provides advanced Six Sigma expertise.
Timekeeper - watches the agenda and helps meetings stay on schedule and focused.
Projects need schedules so everyone knows what needs to happen and when.
Scribe/Note-taker - records discussions, decisions, action items, and brainstorming.
Team Members - participate, collect and analyze data, complete assignments, and provide feedback.
Phase-Based Timeline
Estimate time for each DMAIC phase.
Critical Path method
maps tasks, their order, duration, and which path determines completion.
Milestones (important checkpoints that help helps teams keep track of their progress and report results)
Budget (teams must understand financial limits and make improvements that fit the available resources)
Defined Success where everyone must agree on what success looks like before the project ends.
Prevent Scope Creep by setting clear goals, timelines, budgets, and success measures to keep the project form expanding endlessly.
