QD:
What do you think of Six Sigma?
Juran:From what I've seen of it, it's a basic version of quality improvement. There is nothing new there. …
Most people don't even understand what Six Sigma means. It is a goal. A goal of very few defects, down to defects per million.
[the concept] originally started with Bob Galvin, the former CEO of Motorola.
The name Six Sigma comes from a measure of what we call process capability … Now, to my knowledge, that concept of process capability goes back to 1926, when I was a young engineer at Western Electric.

“…Organizational Cultures are worth far more to many companies than their tangible assets. Unlike financial and physical ones,intangible assets are hard for competitors to imitate, which makes
them a powerful source of sustainable competitive advantage.”
Robert S. Kaplan and David P. Norton, “Measuring the Strategic Readiness of Intangible Assets”
Harvard Business Review, February 2004
