The Basics of Six Sigma and Beyond with Dr. Abhay V. Trivedi
The Cost Management Center Podcast
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Abhay V. Trivedi, a Master Black Belt in Six Sigma, trained engineer, author, and former college dean. Not surprisingly, he has a rare depth and breadth of knowledge. He also has the skill of being able to communicate that knowledge in a way that is clear and memorable. The information just pours out of him. You should get your Six Sigma yellow belt just for listening to the podcast.
Six Sigma is the best-known model for helping companies improve processes by lowering defect rates, built around the DMAIC framework (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control). But this conversation goes well beyond methodology. Dr. Trivedi digs into the cultural, operational, and leadership factors that hold companies back — and what it actually takes to change them.
Listeners will walk away with more than a basic understanding of Six Sigma. You'll gain a core understanding of how operational efficiency and accuracy can transform a company from the inside out.
