Written by a Six Sigma Master Black Belt and a Ph.D., this practical guide to Lean Six Sigma project execution follows the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) roadmap.

Great book to get started with Minitab 22 Feb 2009

By G. Van Cauwenbergh - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Explainations on SIgmaXL and Minitab are very clear and welll documented.I recommend this book to anyone who uses SIgmaXL, but Minitab users can get some great benefit from it too.

Decent but not fantastic 3 Mar 2010

By Brian W. Garcia - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Decent reference, but as you might expect, it shares it's delivery between SigmaXL and Minitab. If you are looking to dabble between the two tools, then this book is for you. If you are looking to get sharp on either of them, however, then this is an ok reference but may not be the only reference you choose to have in your library.
