| Abstract
|
:
|
The Rath & Strong Pocket Guide to Six Sigma is one of the bestselling books on Six Sigma ever published, with over 150,000 copies sold (self-published). Now Rath & Strong, one of the leading Six Sigma consultancies, has written a followup book, to be published by McGraw-Hill: The Rath & Strong Six Sigma Team Pocket Guide. While Rath & Strong's first book covered the technical and statistical tools needed for Six Sigma, this followup book explains the team skills and people skills needed to overcome internal politics and make Six Sigma a success. The Rath & Strong Six Sigma Team Pocket Guide is badly needed because many Six Sigma projects are failing--not because of misuse of Six Sigma's statistical tools, but because of internal politics. Six Sigma team members aren't spending enough time getting buy-in and support for their projects, and team leaders aren't doing a good job leading teams.
