DESCRIPTION
This breakdown of the different methods used by Samsung in the development of their 2nd generation Six Sigma program are compelling. I've already published widely on the benefits Samsung has derived from using TRIZ (theory of inventive problem solving), in it s product and process development domains. What I thought might add some additional clarity and understanding for readers would be other aspects to their 2nd generation six sigma program that has gained them significant value - they do of course drive a value driven strategy.
