(Pyzdek Institute: Tucson, AZ) -- No matter what your knowledge of lean Six Sigma, come join author Thomas Pyzdek and Master Black Belts Peter Bersbach and Larry Dyer in a one-hour lively discussion on “11 Ways to Sink Your Six Sigma Project,” at 11 a.m. EST on Feb. 1, 2012. This event is at no cost to you.

Bersbach will give an overview of each way, then open the session to a discussion on how to avoid that particular failure mode. No ideas are wrong, but we will learn different approaches we might use to avoid each of the 11 ways and have a very successful project.

The 11 ways include:
1. Poor project selection
