Recently, it was decided that all state government employees needed to complete Lean Six Sigma White Belt training. Essentially, this training is designed to combine Lean’s methods for reducing waste and maximizing flow in processes and Six Sigma’s methods for using measurement tools to decrease the variations that lead to inefficiency in processes. These concepts can be incredibly useful for government agencies, because government agencies are often extremely inefficient and behind the times…
