The 4th Annual Lean & Six Sigma in Service & Transactional Environments will take place in Chicago, August 18-20 2009
Full details will be announced soon.
Based on the enormous success of WCBF's Six Sigma event series to date, it is expected that this will be the largest senior-level conference to focus on Six Sigma in Service & Transactional Environments implementation. Nowhere else will you find such an exceptional array of speakers and organizations willing to share their experience with you.
Pick One. If you plan on attending just one Six Sigma in Service & Transactional Environments conference, then this is the one to select. WCBF currently averages over 200+ senior-level attendees at its Six Sigma Conferences. This is the highest number of senior-level attendees per a Six Sigma niche focussed conference than any other organization.
As recognition for registering before the agenda and speakers are announced we are offering substantial discounts to register early.
The agenda and speakers are not announced until 16-20 weeks prior to the event. However, as the leading research team in this sector, you can be assured we create the strongest need-to-know agendas that address the current burning issues you face in your job functions. Importantly, we spend a substantial amount of time locating and selecting the best first-class thought leaders, who have addressed those issues. WCBFs key differentiator is that we draw on more resources and spend more time researching our events than anyone else, consequently they are of a far higher quality and reach a much larger audience.
See our testimonials for further evidence of the quality of our events.
