it was very informative and helpful!
it covers most of the material I learned in two courses about this topic and it helped me study for the exam.
I highly recommend it if you want to get a short summarized introduction to Lean methodology and Six sigma.
the only down part is that I didn't get the full experience since I listened to it as an audiobook and the book contains visual explanations (photos, models..) which I didn't get to see. in short I recommend reading the book rather than listening to it especially if your new to this topic.

Rather good overview. However, not sure who is an audience: beginner can hardly get to essence just gets familiar with many abbreviations. I see it’s a good summary for the one preparing for an exam of what is lean six sigma - if this is the audience, then 4 stars :)

Lean Six Sigma, vyvinutá Motorolou, je metoda o obecně platných způsobech dobrého vedení firmy nebo korporace, jež vám pomohou se správným vedením vašeho podniku. Kdybych byl CEO (nebo bych se jím chystal být), dal bych jistě i 4 hvězdy.

"Simplified and beginner's guide" description don't describe the superficiality of the book. Not worth it even for beginners, even as a simple review.

It is a quick guide to lean six sigma, highly depend on the pdf file "as I was listening to it". I am sure that you can find a better quick guide than that.
