There are several ways of integrating Lean and Six Sigma for operational excellence. Most discussions end at Lean Six Sigma (integrated in Belt curricula and concepts and tools used in projects as suitable) being the right approach. However, as companies need to have an approach at strategic level and an approach at operational task level, how do you bind the thoughts? Does Lean provide the concepts and Six Sigma is meant for execution? Or would you say, the Y to X drill down (of Six Sigma) provides the journey and lean completes the picture by involving people down the line. Or would you let both flow simultaneously with Vice President (Lean) and Vice President (Six Sigma) being parallel positions?
