Team members are not required to work off schedules. This is sometimes necessary. They also do not need to possess and full knowledge of the organization or understand all elements of the problem. A fresh set of eyes can be very valuable to the team. Much in the way the MBB serves the team. The primary characteristic is their belief in the power of the team and its potential to leverage abilities and adjust to changes with greater speed and efficiency.

Identify the incorrect statement about black belts from below: The black belt should have training in improvement techniques The black belt is not always the boss The level of engagement between the black belt and the master black belt stays the same throughout the duration of the project Each team member, not the black belt, Is responsible for completing assignments between meetings.

The black belt is not always the boss. It is a collaborative effort with shared leadership. Individuals are always empowered to complete their own tasks. Black belts should have training in improvement techniques. This is part of the six sigma methodology. B is not correct. As the project progresses, the MBB backs off so that the BB can take a more engaged direct leadership role.

The individual with the most technical training and knowledge in six sigma principles resides with which role? Green Belts Sponsors Master Black Belts Black Belts

The increasing knowledge flow in six sigma goes from green belt, to black belt to master black belt. A sponsor typically has training at the yellow belt level, if at all. However, some sponsors can be master black belts.

What is the typical length of training for a black belt? Six Months Six Weeks Six days Six nonconsecutive months

The length of black belt training typically varies. Clearly, a training regiment over six days would hardly be effective. A nonconsecutive program is highly desirable that a project can be pursued in parallel with the training to best apply and gain confidence in using the tools.
