GB’s in undertaking their individual projects.

By on October 19, 2012 in Lean Six Sigma, Uncategorized

Dear Yong,

 

Thanks for sending the pictures of the course through to us.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and have taken the LSS deployment  to my organisation, At the NHS they have agreed to go ahead with it.

 

I am currently writing the business case for the projects to come and I will also deliver the actual LSS GB training, with my role also then being to mentor the GB’s in undertaking their individual projects.

Thx for everything

Kind Regards
