Y6Sigma Principles

• Six Sigma is a complex statistical based methodology originally developed to improve manufacturing processes. In service businesses like Shared Services, we do not deal with pieces of machinery but rather with people interacting with people. And people have emotions, opinions, different values, beliefs, behaviours and capabilities that machines simply do not have, which requires profound cultural understanding and preparation work.
• In service businesses, improving processes is a way of thinking, communicating and behaving; therefore, achieving operational excellence is possible only if a Culture of Operational Excellence is created and shared across the organisation.
• Changing processes and improving performance are not management decisions imposed on employees, but rather a matter of team empowerment. If organisations and their people share the same values and beliefs, they will share the same desired outcomes and ensure individual and team behavioural alignment towards the achievement of these outcomes. This alignment is at the base of Theory-Y organisations (McGregor).
• In process improvement oriented organisations, teams “think at cause” vs. “living at effect” and build positive relationships around the factual evidence of the root cause of the issues that affect their processes. Factual analysis of process issues’ root causes are at the base of the Six Sigma approach.
• Sharing performance measures allow individuals and teams to build the right resourceful states, which then places them onto a resourceful platform to transform their processes. This is the ultimate factor at the base of a Y6Sigma organisation.
