[BBLISA-announce] BBLISA June meeting - Lay waste to waste

[John P. Rouillard]

Hi all:

For those of you who wanted to view Peg Schafer's slides on IT Project
Management, they are available from the past meeting page:

  http://www.bblisa.org/past.html

Also we have a 78MB avi of the meeting thanks to Josh. We don't quite
know where to host it, but I can get you a copy if you email me.

In a followup to Peg touching on TQM, ITIL, PMP & Agile practices in
her talk, I will be speaking about "Laying waste to waste".

This talk will cover the basic ideas and some background behind Lean
and 6 Sigma (LSS), discuss their origins and then walk through some
examples while introducing the tools and techniques. Plus you get to
test the speaker by bringing your own problems and (hopefully) leave
with some ideas on how to tackle resolving the problem.

John Rouillard has been a system administrator trying to fix practices
for more decades than he cares to remember. His interest in formal
problem solving techniques developed by watching solutions that didn't
really solve problems but merely added more problems while allowing
the original issue to generate even more failures.

It will happen on Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 7PM in MIT E-51, Room
149

Agenda:

7:00 - Announcements & Introductions
7:30 - Formal presentation MIT E-51, Room 149

Hope to see you there.
