The iSixSigma Magazine benchmarking study of Black Belt return on investment
(ROI) found a wide range of results – some expected and some not. At any stage
of deployment, companies reap significant financial benefits from Six Sigma Black
Belt projects and generally have the commitment of senior management. The most
significant financial benefits are enjoyed by the companies that audit their project
results. And while the vast majority of organizations do set annual Six Sigma
goals, over half of all Black Belts surveyed do not have any compensation tied to
achieving those goals. Take a look and see how your organization compares.
