January 30, 200917 yr There are several reasons why Six Sigma has not been successful at all companies. Here are a few:a) Not buy-in from top management. As a result, no support is provided to the Six Sigma resources to make it successful. Lack of communication of benefits of Six Sigma. As a result, over time the program becomes the flavour of the month.c) Lack of organizational structure to validate benefits, support teams, reward the people who are successful.d) Too many programs within a company that ensures a lack of focus on the most important ones.e) Lack of vigour in selecting the right projects and people to run the program which results in poor results.f) Poor training methods that may result in lack of understanding of the process steps on one extreme or analysis paralysis on the other.
