6Sigma Interview: A Black Belt Story

As I sat down listening to him, I was impressed with his story. He started importation of Agricultural tools with N150,000 and has built to an estimated 800 million per annum for 4 years now. His bank statements in my hands were surreal and now he needs consult on Six Sigma. He wanted a process re-engineering in logistics and transactions. As he was about to explain his current process, I got a call from office of the MD of FBN Capitals – the MD wanted a meeting regarding Lean Six Sigma. In the process of looking at my calendar for an appropriate, someone screamed in the larger training room. It was Mr. Banjo, he just passed his IASSC LSS Black Belt exam in the 86th percentile.
