Lean vs. Lean Six Sigma — what’s the difference, and which is the best choice for me?
Lean focuses on eliminating waste to increase efficiency, while Lean Six Sigma targets both waste reduction and variation reduction in processes. If you’re looking for a more holistic approach to process improvement with a focus on quality enhancement, Lean Six Sigma may be the better choice. If your primary goal is to increase efficiency, Lean alone may suffice.

Green Belt vs. Black Belt, what’s the difference and which is the best choice for me?
As a Green Belt, you’ll spend about 20% of your time identifying problems, implementing solutions, and optimizing processes, leaving plenty of room for other tasks. A Black Belt, on the other hand, dedicates more time to Lean Six Sigma, working on more complex problems and leading multiple improvement projects. Green Belts focus on solving issues within a single department, similar to a project manager’s responsibilities. Black Belts have broader responsibilities and take on leadership roles.

We offer training options in both Dutch and English.
