Summary: A quick refresher of Lean Six Sigma elements

Comment: A well-organized, bullet-pointed listing of the big elements of the Lean Six Sigma processes. A great tool to have handy for referencing when the big kahuna wants to talk about the program. It's the size of a typical paperback novel and organized in a logical, intuitive fashion.

Summary: Excellent Quick Reference for Lean Six Sigma Tools

Comment: I teach Lean Six Sigma and have used this book for the Black Belt certification course. It has just the right amount of detail to serve exactly as the title suggests. It's not a beginner's how-to book - think of it as the condensed version of your LSS course, for when you know there's a tool for something you want to do, but can't quite remember the details. Or, when you think you remember but just want a quick check and an example to give you confidence in using the tool.

I've also used it in my consulting work and have heard only rave reviews from clients. This handy tookbook should be in every Lean Six Sigma facilitator's library.

Summary: A Concise Reference Book for Quick Review

Comment: It is a handy reference book that packed with tools and key points. In view of its approach and its size, I would say it reasonably include the information. Yet, if would be better (a) if its size be reduced in view of its contents; or (b) expand the contents a little more for giving more details; plus samples would be better. The book contains samples but are very brief. Don't read it as a reference book, it is not. Neither don't regard it as a textbook. If you want to have a briefing or general idea, then, this is quite a good book. If you are new to Six Sigma, I also recommend it to you for its size and contents. May be some other people with in-depth knowledge of Six sigma would tell if it is also good for them for revision.
