    TESTIMONIALS

    The Master Lean Six Sigma Black Belt has fully met my expectations both to deepen some of the topics addressed during the Green Belt course and to acquire all the methodologies (ANOVA, soft skills, project management...) fundamental for project governance in Six Sigma perspective. I thank the lecturer Matteo Casadio Strozzi for the preparation, clarity and availability shown during the various lectures. Recommended to all change-makers.

    SUANFARMA

    Bonfiglioli's course succeeds in declining the concepts of Lean Six Sigma to our reality, bringing concrete examples applicable to many companies.
    The tools and soft skills that are acquired during the Black Belt course are easily applicable and critical in implementing a continuous improvement management system.

    MASTER LEAN SIX SIGMA - After last year's Lean-Six Sigma Green Belt certification with Bonfiglioli Consulting at our company and experiencing "in the field" the first successes, I decided to undertake the Master Lean-Six Sigma Black Belt course to further deepen my knowledge of this methodology and make it the foundation of the improvement activities we conduct in the company. The course fully met my expectations, thanks in part to the instructor Matteo Casadio Strozzi, who was very effective in explaining, including through concrete examples, the topics covered. Strongly recommended!

    The one made in Factory was a wonderful educational experience, which confirms the truth of the slogan: you only learn by doing. Many are the insights that I take back to the activity I carry out in the service world, a testament to the goodness of the method.

    MASTER LEAN SIX SIGMA VI EDITION the master lean six sigma black belt course is absolutely enriching, seriously structured while managing to be both light and never boring. Although all the days turn out to be challenging overall, once the course is over, instead of feeling relief, you will experience a feeling of nostalgia. I recommend it to everyone!

    Adare Pharmacauticals

    MASTER LEAN SIX SIGMA VI EDITION. I believe that the Master Lean Six Sigma course for Lean Black Belt certification that I attended at Bonfiglioli Consulting was extremely useful for my profession because I was able to delve into some management issues that I did not know or that I knew only partially. For these reasons I recommend it to companies that have embarked on this path.

    Master Lean Six Sigma path Lean Black Belt - Very useful, both for the theoretical part and, above all, for the associated project development: it allows you to touch the power of the method.

    Gianni Burba

    Bracco Imaging Spa

    Master Lean Six Sigma path Lean Black Belt - I had doubts about which Six Sigma course to choose. I chose Bonfiglioli Consulting because it is one of the Lean consulting companies in Italy that I have heard a lot of good things about, even though I had no direct experience. And I must say that the course fully met my expectations and not only that, it definitely confirmed the idea of trust and competence of Bonfiglioli.

    Giorgia Dal Pont

    Amb Srl

    Master Lean Six Sigma path Lean Black Belt - It was an excellent training experience that provided powerful tools to address improvement in the company based on data, analysis and method. In addition, the mode of the course is great because it allows direct discussion on each topic by providing detailed and specific answers for each participant, including through the use of valuable practical examples. It is an experience that I recommend to enrich one's cultural and professional background.
