Continuous Improvement is a well-used term but obtaining true continuous performance improvement in an ongoing basis remains elusive in most organizations. We’ll reveal an approach that has enabled multiple companies to obtain true continual performance improvement through the use of a combination of Agile Development techniques (such as Scrum) to establish an improvement engine and Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and Lean Six Sigma (LSS) to obtain maximum performance. This approach will be described using real-world examples of organizations that are successfully using it and the real benefits and pit-falls will be described along-the-way .
