Summary: An Excellent Portrait of Six Sigma
Comment: Using golf as a backdrop, this book paints an excellent portrait of implementing Six Sixma as a business strategy. The picture comes alive with the realism of the characters and their experiences.

Wisdom on the Green is a call to change. This change is accomplished through process definition, measurement, analysis, improvement, and control. Whether the output of the process is your golf score or days sales outstanding, change is required to improve.

The book is an enjoyable and easy-to-read story, which gives the reader an understanding of the Six Sigma implementation approach. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in business or golf. It would be a great gift for an executive in your company.

Summary: Worth the Read
Comment: I didn't know much about either Six Sigma or golf, but this book presented Six Sigma in a way that I could understand it. The golf lesssons were interesting without getting me lost in the terms. This is not a book for someone looking for Six Sigma certification. It is a book for that person's boss, who won't have the time or inclination to read the massive volume that the practitioner needs.

Summary: Keep looking!
Comment: This book provided no useful information about 6 sigma. The content of the book could be distilled into a single paragraph, at most. I am a chemical engineer, and I am working on my MBA. I bought this book because I am looking to become six sigma certified as well. This book was no help. It mentioned 4 or 5 terms that I am well acquainted with, like DOE's, but it didn't explain them at all. Plus, the book presented through a boring narrative.
