How has six sigma helped me?

I had mentioned in the introduction that six sigma is a process improvement methodology. The improvement in process is not limited to professional environment only. It can be utilized at personal level also. It can be directly or indirectly used for most trivial things like improving your time scheduling to most critical things like improving your personalized health care system.

After completing my six sigma certification, I have realized the importance of quantifying the world. An example at a very basic level would be - if a question is asked "When will you complete the XYZ task?". A non quantified answer would be - "in some time, in few hours, in a short while, will take longer etc..". A quantified answer would be - "In 3 hours, At 6.00 pm etc..". It makes you more organized and more structured.

Now from job point of view - Companies like GE, Motorola prefer people who are six sigma certified (at least Green Belt). In most of the companies that I have given my interview, the strongest point in my resume has been my Six Sigma certification.
