Green Belts

Green belts are six sigma project leaders capable of forming and facilitating six sigma teams and managing six sigma projects from concept to completion. Green belt training consists of five days of classroom training and is conducted in conjunction with six sigma projects. Training covers project management, quality management tools, quality control tools, problem solving and descriptive data analysis. Six sigma champions should attend green belt training. Usually, six sigma black belts help green belts define their projects prior to the training, attend training with their green belts and assist them with their projects after the training.

Who drives six sigma?

Usually a top executive or senior manager who “talks the talk” and “walks the walk” of six sigma drives it. This person is the sponsor, a catalyst and the driving force behind the organization’s six-sigma implementation.
Six sigma takes a handful of proven methods and trains a small cadre of in-house technical leaders known as six sigma black belts to a high level of proficiency in the application of these techniques. To be sure, some of the methods used by black belts are highly advanced, including the use of up-to-date computer technology. But the tools are applied within a simple performance improvement model known as DMAIC, or Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control.
