iSixSigma

iSixSigma is an online forum and KX designed to embrace, discuss and learn process capability tools and methodologies. There is a great mix of experienced and less experienced 'problem solvers' that constantly strive to select the right tool to solve complex process capability problems. The audience is global and this adds to a very rich expereince of understanding social-economic influences that can affect both people and an organisations ability to perform. I occasionally provide mentor support to students seeking to attain certified accreditation. iSixSigma

This alumni group consists of present and past pharma professionals that have served for one of the worlds largest pharmaceutical companies. My area of expertise rested in R&D Finance and this was an area of key influence for thye entire company to help decide on revenues and how money gets spent.
