Based on the Juran Institute’s breakthrough method, Juran’s Six Sigma: Breakthrough and Beyond goes beyond certification or implementation processes discussed in most six sigma texts to prepare an organization's managers -- at all levels -- to deal with the practical day-to-day human, structural, and technological issues which arise when initiating and maintaining a Six Sigma effort. Juran's Six Sigma: Breakthrough and Beyond allows you to modify your program to suit your individual requirements. With this book, you get everything you need to improve and maintain Six-Sigma breakthrough performance long after the consultants have packed up and gone home.

Lean Six Sigma is a result of two powerful methodologies (Lean and Six Sigma) that have a complementary toolkit. Combining the two techniques with effective team skills has provided vast improvements in many organizations. The fundamental objective of Juran's Lean Six Sigma Service curriculum is to develop a methodology and strategy that enable individuals and organizations to successfully improve processes and reduce variation. At a project level the Lean Six Sigma DMAIC process (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) is an improvement system for existing processes falling below specification and provides methods for obtaining breakthrough improvement.Green Belts identify and resolve chronic problems using the Lean Six Sigma toolkit including graphical analysis tools such as Pugh and Selection matrices, mistake proofing, and application of Little's law, among many others. They are active participants and team members working in the process being improved. Relatable industry-specific examples and exercises are included, such as determining demand capacity, supply chain management, and differentiating between employee-controlled and management-controlled errors. Green Belts can also be autonomous team leaders, and work as subject matter experts, who help project teams from time to time sharing their specialized knowledge. Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt Service is a prerequisite.
