Lean and Six Sigma are the two most powerful strategies for achieving operational and service excellence in any organisation today. Although these two methodologies have been around for several years, there are no peer-reviewed international journals covering both aspects in research terms. The purpose of The International Journal of Lean Six Sigma is to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of Lean Six Sigma (an integrated approach of Lean and Six Sigma) and to publish the latest trends and research developments in both fields.
Launched in 2010, International Journal of Lean Six Sigma publishes original, empirical and review papers, case studies and theoretical frameworks or models related to Lean and Six Sigma methodologies. High quality submissions are sought from academics, researchers, practitioners and leading management consultants from around the world. Research, case studies and examples can be cited from manufacturing, service and public sectors. This includes manufacturing, health, financial services, local government, education, professional services, IT Services, transport, etc.
Topics may include, but are not limited to:
“IJLSS is highly distinguished within the field of Lean Six Sigma management and is at the forefront of evolving and refining both Lean Six Sigma theory and practice. The Journal has an excellent academic review process that ensures that publications are of a very high standard and demonstrate international relevance and impact.”
