Decent referenceMay 06, 2007
By P. Taylor
"PT"
Has anyone actually sent in the 2 dozen or so corrections to the publisher? The text is weak on analytics and not a 'stand alone' reference for the tougher certification exams (ASQ, Moresteam, etc).
Even so, it is one of the best commercial volumes out there - in terms of organization and potential benefit to the practitioner.
They should take a page off Juran's Quality Handbook, or other Engineering Handbooks (Perry's), on formatting and content development.

It could be betterApr 07, 2008
By RCastro First: For a six sigma book, this book has too many spelling mistakes. It's incredible.
Second: As far as the DMAIC explanation, the book is very superficial. It could have been named :"Six sigma green belt handbook".
Third: The book gives a good overview about lean and kaizen projects. Fourth: The book develops well enough the six sigma management system.
This book may complete some previous ideas bearing in mind that this won't be your six sigma first book.

Read this and decide!!Jul 26, 2009
By Dumidu Ranaweera
"Dumidu Ranaweera"
Well, this is published by the Motorola University and contain reference to some of the content discussed in their Six Sigma Black Belt programmes. As in general if you are in love with the original "concepts" and a collector of Six Sigma books go ahead. Motorola actual black belt programmes includes high practical content making you a capable practitioner. Well you cant expect that from this material. This is a reference for those seeking clarity on the concepts rather than tools. Well out of the two Black Belt Handbooks available in the market as at the date this review was made this stands clearly behind Pzydeks Handbook and ahead of ASQs handbook. There are spelling mistakes, but those are not that so bad.
Top Notch Tool for ExecutivesApr 12, 2012
By Restor Johnson This handbook is a top notch tool for executives. The authors provide a comprehensive application guide for business-driven Six Sigma practitioners. I have used this book time and again to help define and solve business problems, in business terms. The authors practical approach helps me leverage my Six Sigma training and apply high impact tools on an everyday basis, without getting bogged down in unproductive process that often taints Six Sigma programs. I truly appreciate their results orientation and practical explanation. They also do a very nice job providing a path to demonstrate results. This is an excellent book for executives who want to effectively deploy Six Sigma discipline.
Six Sigma Black Belt AlertJun 22, 2008
By David Cannady "The Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook" is a must read for all Black Belt practioners striving to meet, if not exceed, critical customer and critical business requirements. The insights that I gained, as a practicing Black Belt with more than 20 years of process experience, from reading the "Six Sigma Teams, Methodology and Tools" section will help me drive even greater increases in customer satisfaction and generate even more cost savings.
