As important and essential is the implementation and use of Six Sigma to the livelihood of any business organization, the certification process for an individual to become Six Sigma qualified is rather obscure.
Green Belts play a vital role in Six Sigma implementations, but the problem is that it is not that easy to provide Green Belt training to existing employees.
The responsibility for the success of Six Sigma implementation projects usually rests with Six Sigma professionals such as Black Belts. It is not surprising to know that it is these professionals who take all the credit for the success of quality improvement initiatives in a business. However, what most organizations often fail to realize is that credit for a project’s success should also go to the Green Belts who do most of the hard work by providing the necessary assistance to Black Belts.
Any organization that wants to derive the full benefits of Six Sigma implementation projects first needs to provide the requisite coaching to its employees, especially to selected implementation team members, in order to make them aware about the basic concepts and methodologies of Six Sigma.
