For an improvement project to be successful, the leaders of the project must be effective. The leaders are usually the Black Belts. The reason they are the ones to lead the projects is because they have a great grasp on the knowledge of Six Sigma tools, as well as being effective at mobilization of teams toward the end result. It is important for Black Belts to be good at mobilizing the team and stakeholders, too. In order to be able to do these things, they must first be able to mobilize themselves.
Not all Black Belts are skilled at mobilizing the teams and stakeholders. But it is possible to develop these skills, for which it is necessary to learn to mobilize oneself from the start. If the Black Belt gets into the heads of the other team members and understands their viewpoints, it is then possible for them to understand everything. If they are able to mobilize themselves in such a scenario, they can develop skills to mobilize others as well.
IN order for the Black Belt to mobilize his team members, is it important to step into their shoes. One of the first things a team member will want to know is what is in this for them? The best answer to this question would be to ask back, what they are expecting? Then the Black Belt can plan the meeting around all of these answers.
Another group that will need mobilizing is the stakeholders. This group is made up of top management, colleagues and clients. It is important to keep them informed of the status of the projects. This will give the stakeholders more of a push in accepting projects.
The project leader or the Black Belts can mobilize others very well, if they are able to mobilize themselves first and understand the needs of others. By constant review and analysis of the members, the Black Belts can ensure that everyone is geared up towards the success of the project. - 15465
