When some group members are much more vocal than others, to encourage equal participation from all, ___________ is preferred as it has limited vocal interaction. Traditional brainstorming Nominal group technique Delphi technique All the above2. All the statements below are TRUE, EXCEPT; A full-scale solution implementation plan should always be created incorporating the learning from the Pilot Full-scale implementation can be taken as a project in itself and project management techniques can be used The full-scale implementation plan will include schedule, FMEA, training plan, cost benefit analysis, etc The tools used to manage/monitor the process can be discontinued once the goals are achieved3. The following are used for evaluating alternative solutions, except: Multi-voting Pugh Matrix Brainstorming FMEA4. Which one of the following options is preferred for narrowing down long list of ideas to a manageable list for detailed evaluation? Multi-voting FMEA Delphi technique NGT5. One of the following is NOT an advantage of Pilot study Improves the full-scale implementation of solution Validates expectations and facilitates buy-in from stakeholders Helps us achieve sub-optimization Helps identification of previously unknown performance problems6. Which of the following is CORRECT in case of De Bono Six thinking hats? The Green hat is encouraged to use divergent thinking and explore alternative ideas The White hat gives team members the opportunity to present their intuitions and feelings The Red hat requires team members to consider only data and information at hand “Thinking about thinking” is applicable to orange hat7. ___________ is measuring your performance against the best in class companies, determining how those performance levels are achieved, and using that information as the basis for your own company’s targets, strategies and implementation.

NVA can be removed by Combining steps Changing the sequence of activities “Make the customer do it” All the above10. All the following are attributes of Pugh Matrix, EXCEPT; It compares current situation (datum) will multiple alternatives It also compares all alternatives with each other It is used when decision is to be made on basis of several criteria Useful when a list of options must be narrowed down to one choice11. Panel of experts, questionnaires and anonymity are prime features of: Pugh Matrix Stakeholder Analysis Delphi Technique Control Impact Matrix12. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE about the IMPROVE phase? Emphasis is more on being creative than analytical Implementation of the selected solutions is one of the main tasks in this phase Evaluation of alternative solutions is done in the improve phase The main deliverable of this phase is implementing control systems for critical x’s identified in the analyze phase
