Analysis of Six Sigma Tools Utilization in Phases of DMAIC Cycle
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2021) Soliński, Bartosz
Six Sigma has been developed and successfully used in many organizations for many years. The use of Six Sigma in process-improvement requires the systematic and disciplined use of specific tools and techniques in the DMAIC cycle. The DMAIC cycle includes five phases: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control this is one of the most popular Six Sigma improvement cycles that are used in improving existing processes. When improving processes in accordance with the DMAIC cycle, it is important to have knowledge of the tools and techniques that are used and the ability to select them for the specifics of a project and the appropriate phases of the cycle. This article critically reviews the literature on the use of individual tools in the appropriate phases of the DMAIC cycle and uses a semi-structured interview method with specialists in the field of using Six Sigma. The obtained results of the analyses can contribute to the study of the validity of using individual tools and techniques for the effective use of Six Sigma and provide a useful comparative review for theoreticians and practitioners who want to use the appropriate tools in the DMAIC cycle.

The role of the team in project implementation
(AGH University of Science and Technology Press, 2020) Peszko, Agnieszka
This paper intends to debate the importance of a team in successful project management. We discuss selected methodologies and pay special attention to the decision-making process in teams using traditional and agile approaches. The methods used in this article are the analysis and synthesis of the literature, as well as the results of carried out researches. To fulfill the aim of this study, we briefly characterize traditional and agile methodologies of project management, describe the team building process and define the desired competences of the team members. We also explore the differences in the decision-making process resulting from the methodology of project management selected. Additionally, we also analyze the result of research on the role of a team in the project management process. Regardless of the methodology adopted, it is crucial to not only consider the candidates' knowledge or experience while selecting project team members, but also their personality traits and interpersonal skills (social skills). However, it should be pointed out that given the specific nature of the agile methodologies, the social skills of team members are incredibly important, perhaps even more important than professional competences. In the case of traditional methodologies, teams of highly qualified specialists able to make quick and independent decisions are more efficient. In agile methodologies, the decision-making power of the project team is much greater. As the decisions are often made collectively, the executive managers' trust in the project team is of vital importance.
