    E141: Hidden Costs of Equipment Downtime

    In this episode, I discuss a big opportunity to improve success in your manufacturing facility, reducing equipment downtime. Most people are only focused on the lost labor when equipment isn't running, but what about the lost opportunity to produce valuable products that could be sold to a customer? If you're looking for a good improvement project, collecting data on your downtime and calculating these costs might uncover a potential project you can work on.

    E140: Applying Six Sigma's IPO (Inputs Process Outputs) to your Personal Life

    In this episode, I discuss an important concept in Six Sigma: Y = f(x) or Y is a function of x. Y is your measured output, and X represents the inputs to your process, and the function represents the process and how the X factors relate or impact the Y. Another way to state it is Inputs (X), Processes (Function) and Outputs (Y) or IPO. I explain how this concept can be used when thinking through your own personal improvement journey. What are your inputs, processes and outputs. If you don't like how one of the outputs is performing (relationships, weight, health, income, etc), then what processes and inputs need to change.

    E138: Using Employee Surveys and Paired t tests for Measuring Improvement

    In this episode, I discuss a specific method for capturing process improvements using surveys, and how you can isolate the improvements so that the difference between survey participants doesn't hide the results. I also referenced a similar survey I conducted (Episode 77), where I shared the survey results at a company after implementing a daily huddle.
