E059: Lean Six Sigma Workshop – Gresham Employees and Green Businesses - a podcast by Brion Hurley: Lean Six Sigma for Good

In this podcast, I share a presentation I gave on Jan 14, 2020 with the City of Gresham employees and Gresham Green Businesses.







I was asked to teach them about Lean and Six Sigma methods by Gregg Hayward (who kicked off the event) and Shannon Martin. I’ve worked with both of them in the past at other recycling activities and past green business activities near Portland.







You can learn more about my green business work in Clackamas County on Episode 12 about Setting Up a Green Team

In this workshop, I go over the basics of Lean and Six Sigma, and how it can be applied to your work to impact finances, community, environment and applied at home.







There is a video of the presentation, which includes the workshop PPT slides



















I also discuss the following lean concepts of 8 wastes, value, systems thinking, value stream, one piece flow, and pull. There is also a simulation using note cards, that teaches batch vs one piece flow. I also discuss the Six Sigma concepts of variation, data analysis, measurement error, and process controls.
