How to Use Process Behavior Charts to Guide Better Outcomes in Healthcare



Many people think that statistics is the exclusive domain of “Six Sigma," but “Process Behavior Charts" are a statistical method that can be incorporated into any improvement initiatives or any Lean management system. This webinar will explain how PBCs can be used to evaluate the impact of projects and how they can be used to track performance measures over time, allowing us to react less, to lead better, and to improve more.
