Managing Master Black Belt Projects

Up to Black Belt certification level, the structure of the certification followed the sequence of core LSSOD projects comprising a work portfolio of implementing LSSOD projects.  Certification for the Master Black Belt portfolio is quite different in that its purpose is to demonstrate learning, and the applications of LSSOD in action.  In many ways, certification for Master Black Belt (MBB) is a detailed log of your journey to MBB highlighting your learning in implementing LSSOD.

The structure you adopt will depend on the journey you have taken.  If you have not had opportunities to develop real solid implementation you should focus more on your theoretical learnings.  However, MBB is really about applying the principles to novel situations and may well cover ‘the journey to MBB’ as a chronological time –line of key interventions, implementation and learning.


Master Black Belt Portfolio is Your LSSOD Identity

When completing your MBB documentation, you may want to consider how you will use this in the future.  Many of you will go on to teaching YB, GB, BB and start implementing Lean SSOD in a variety of organisations.  If this is the case, you may want to showcase your accomplishments very much as you would your CV to a prospective employer.  You will also find it is an easier way of documenting your personal development and learning.


No Prescriptive Structure

There is no prescriptive structure but we do provide a framework which you may find useful, and it is included here in this section.  Please note, there is no maximum length for your MBB portfolio, but you will have to demonstrate rigour in your analysis, and report on several in-depth projects.  You may also include the following:


  • Developments in LSSOD theory and practice that you have applied either from your interventions or your personal research
  • Creation and design of learning materials to facilitate the transfer of LSSOD into the culture of a business
  • Facilitation of LSSOD events and processes
  • Leading RIE’s (please include the preparation that led to the RIE)
  • Organising conferences and workshops in LSSOD
  • Training and Development of staff to Yellow, Green and Black Belt level
  • Developmental activity that has led to the furtherance of LSSOD in any context which has worked with problem solving groups
