This part of the course will focus on the systematic and proven use of the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC) Methodology to dramatically reduce current process defects. Participants will practice using the common tools and techniques behind each phase through interactive exercises. Topics include: How to strategically align business metrics and projects within an organization How to identify and measure quality characteristics which are critical to customers What does the customer (internal or external) really want from our products and services? Establishing appropriate teams and setting those teams up to be successful What defines a good measurement system? How are we doing (learning the secret to measuring the right things, right)? How to improve output measures by understanding and measuring the process Where are there defects (how to properly select and scope high-impact projects)? Where is the process broken (the Lean Six Sigma version of root cause analysis)? How to determine the process efficiency, or value add, of a process The appropriate use of quality tools Understanding the concept of variation and how to reduce knee-jerk reactions How to achieve breakthrough results for any key measure How can we ensure the identified improvements will be sustainable (the basics of process control)?

Decision Making and Problem Solving (In-Person)

By IIL Europe Ltd

Decision Making and Problem Solving (In-Person) We may live in an era of fast technology and increasing reliance upon automation, but our human abilities to think critically, make careful decisions, and solve nuanced problems are more important than ever. Our personal lives depend on those things, and so do the lives of our organizations. Since business is now conducted at remarkable speeds, we put our organizations at great risk daily when we have weak competencies with decision-making and problem-solving. Decisions and solutions that are executed impulsively and without structured approaches can create more problems or make existing ones worse! This course aims to help participants improve their skills so they can execute well and add value to the workplace. Learners will experience multiple decision-making and problem-solving models, tools, and techniques meant for the real world. They will learn how to align their growing toolboxes with the right situational contexts so that they can transfer that skill to the workplace. They will also discover how indecision, cognitive bias, and default thought processes can create obstacles to effective decision-making and problem-solving. What you will Learn Recognize the importance of making a sound decision in a timely manner Infer types of cognitive biases and obstacles that impact decision-making Separate facts, requirements, ideas, and perceptions when making a decision or solving problems Apply structured decision-making and problem-solving approaches Conduct cause and effect and Force Field analyses Evaluate alternative solution methods using various techniques Analyze real world situations to determine the best aligned decision-making and problem-solving models, tools, and techniques Implement decision-making and problem-solving models, tools, and techniques Getting Started Foundation Concepts Contextualizing decisiveness and problem-solving Discriminating between decisiveness and problem-solving Understanding Decision-Making Decision-making challenges and impacts Key drivers of good decision-making Thought processes and obstacles Knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) Decision-Making Models and Supporting Tools Decision-making models, tools, and guidelines Tools to evaluate alternatives Translating requirements into action Problem-Solving Defining the problem Problem-solving models Cause and effect analysis Quick hit vs. innovative problem-solving Summary and Next Steps Course summary Personal action plan
