Presentation :  "The Future of Quality:  What's Next After Six Sigma??

 
The idea for this presentation was inspired by the January 2006 issue
of Quality Progress.  What's next after Six Sigma?  Labels may come
and go, but a scientific approach to problem solving will remain.  The
next step for quality professionals should be to broaden the scope to
systematic innovation.
