Different companies have different take on which is better. Some companies feel Lean is better while others feel Six Sigma is better. Most companies conclude that a combination of the two works best. As a qualification, Six Sigma learning is considered more valuable, while for building an improvement culture, initially Lean is found to be more useful.

Both Lean and Six Sigma are business process improvement methodologies. They have a slightly different approach to meet their goals. Some differences in their practical application: Six Sigma: Generally the approach is to train about 25% of the organization on statistical problem solving tools and ask them to fix larger problems with unknown root causes or solutions within the companies. Lean: Train 100% of the workforce on tools such as 5S, Kaizen, Non Value Add analysis etc and create a culture of small improvements every month by large number of people in the organization. For process improvement expertise, both skill sets are unavoidable.

The examination on last day of Green Belt and Black Belt training is a multiple choice test which is entirely based on course content and delivery. Most participants have not been using any study guides for passing the exam. The training material, the exercises and discussions during the training are sufficient. People have scored up to 100% in the exams. The examination pattern is different in In the Quality Auditor course. In this exam, there are descriptive questions in addition to multiple choice.
