161: What is Six Sigma and How Does it Lead to Operational Excellence? A Masterclass with Dr. Frank Barsi

from Business Infrastructure - Curing Back Office Blues · host Alicia Butler Pierre

Back in the early '70s, Dr. Frank Barsi escaped communist Hungary in the cover of night. He swam his way to Austria and eventually arrived in America with literally just the clothes on his back. Determined to start a new life, he quickly joined the U.S. Army. He would later go on to earn multiple engineering degrees. It was at his first job out of college that he was introduced to Six Sigma. At that time, the quality framework was well received in Asia, but not in America. In this episode, Dr. Barsi reflects on his 40-year career in the aerospace industry. It's a fascinating account of his journey in applying Six Sigma to improve a variety of production processes. That work spans developing flight controls for fighter jets and revolutionizing the casting industry. Not sure what Six Sigma is or how you can apply it to your small business? Get ready to take notes as Dr. Barsi explains the framework, its key principles, and how you can apply some of its tools to dramatically increase profitability.   🔗 Links to Resources Dr. Barsi recommends: https://businessinfrastructure.tv/2021/08/08/161-what-is-six-sigma-and-how-does-it-lead-to-operational-excellence-a-masterclass-with-dr-frank-barsi     🎧 Like What You Heard?
