As the pandemic has made 2020 a year we could all have done without, it has also shown us that businesses that pivoted did rather well and some even did better. So much better that they even changed the whole dynamic of the industry. We have seen this with companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, and countless other tech companies.

Now, the companies above are all obvious in their successes during the pandemic because people were home and on their computers. Many started working from home, so you can add Zoom and Slack, as well as Uber Eats and GrubHub, since going out proved to be too risky.

These companies had to keep up with the demand. They had to arrive at the philosophies of Lean Six Sigma on their own by trial and error and in the middle of the pandemic. The Lean aspect concentrates on getting rid of waste, and the Six Sigma aspect focuses on growth and continuous process improvement. 

The Fundamentals of Lean Six Sigma

The philosophy of Lean Six Sigma is based on the combined principles of lean manufacturing and Six Sigma approaches. Incorporating the concepts of waste reduction and variation reduction in order to improve productivity, Lean Six Sigma is often used at corporations in order to improve a process that is more efficient and delivers a product to the customer more quickly.
