--Lean Quality Visionary to Share Insight on Relationship Between Lean and Six Sigma During Premier Auto Industry Conference
     Who:     Bart O'Brien originated the Lean Quality concept of
              using natural language input to develop multi-attribute
              problem descriptions that accelerate root cause analysis
              and early warning for automotive warranty applications. 
              He is currently the vice president of business 
              development at Attensity, an emerging leader in data

              automotive industry from a Lean Six Sigma perspective.
              Learn why Lean and Six Sigma can no longer be viewed as
              unrelated tool kits to be used in isolation, but rather
              embraced as inherently linked elements of a complete
              system and philosophy of management.
