E85: Six Sigma Criticisms #1 - The Motorola 1.5 Sigma Shift

In this episode, I discuss some common criticisms about Six Sigma that I've been hearing about over the years. These tend to make their rounds on LinkedIn every few months or years, so I wanted to take each one and go much deeper in the podcast than I can online. Let's start with one of the biggest ones, the 1.5 sigma shift, also called the Motorola Shift. If there are others you have heard about you'd like me to discuss, contact me and I'll add it to a future episode. Links What is the Motorola Shift?
