I have heard him mention Six Sigma once, and it made me think I could take a closer look at him.
Six Sigma is just a codified way of looking at processes and trying to improve them. It may seem technocratic, but what is government administration but a lot of processes of turning laws into actions?
It also requires a paper trail, statistical analyses of what happens when a change is made to a process, and how it affects the bottom line.
I can’t see any downside to having government act more like a business.
MaoBama , the communist thug he is, actually turned down a proposal from IBM twice to reduce about 80 billion a year in waste in Medicare. Look it up.
This isn’t any different than when the US Air Force went deep into ‘Total Quality Management’ in the 90s. As a mid-level guy in the Air Force then, it was a way for the bigwigs to pretend they were doing something important.
It is COMPETITION that makes a business leaner and meaner, not a management style.
