Sixsigma - First, what it is not. It is not a secret society, a slogan or a cliché.
"Six Sigma is a highly disciplined process that helps us focus on developing and delivering near-perfect products and services. "
Why 'Sigma' ? : The word is a statistical term that measures how far a given process deviates from perfection.
The central idea behind Six Sigma is that if you can measure how many “defects” you have in a process, you can systematically figure out how to eliminate them and get as close to “zero defects” as possible.
Six Sigma has changed the DNA of GE — 'it is now the way we work' — in everything they do and in every product they design.

Kaizen is an approach to total quality management which can be described as continuously improving by making small improvements, mainly in process, every time the process is seen not to be as good as it could be.
Kaizen stands for two japanese words "kai" (change) "zen" (good or for the better) so it's change for the better. The idea here is continual improvement.
Kaizen focus:
- elimination of the 6 types of waste
- the five-S framework
- standardization.
Kaizen works well in slow-growth economy whereas Six Sigma is better adaptive in a fast-growth economy. Kaizen tends to involve everybody and the pace of improvement is gradual and small.
Kaizen is used for continual or small incremental improvement over a long time span rather than a drastic breakthorugh or revolution

"Kaizen means improvement. Moreover It means continuing improvement in personal life, home life, social life, and working life. When applied to the workplace Kaizen means continuing incremental improvement involving everyone--managers and workers alike."
