Free Lean Six Sigma Insight Workshops

These half-day workshops offer a unique opportunity to gain insight into successful Lean Six Sigma projects and exchange with fellow practitioners and leading consultants about success factors and their influence on business improvement.

The goal Lean Six Sigma is to successfully identify, launch and close business improvement initiatives in order to save costs and eliminate waste. Now, what sounds fairly easy in theory can turn out to be quite a challenge in the real world.

Our free workshop offers the possibility to experience and discuss the latest findings of SigmaPro's research into success factors of Lean Six Sigma projects. We will explain the research carried out, present our conclusions and invite you to join our group discussion, where your opinion and contribution counts.

The forum includes a speaker from an academic, a consulting and an industry background to make sure you get a holistic insight.

Why come and see us for this half-day event?

1. Free first-hand insight into the latest trends in methods of business improvement
2. Talk to peers, academics and Six Sigma consultants about best practise
3. Learn which methods and tools work when applied in real projects
4. Learn how other organisations handle business improvement, and the keys to success
5. A professional, informative and exciting event held by industry experts
6. Look into successful Lean Six Sigma projects of recent SigmaPro clients
