Setec Consulting Group once again participated in the Lean Six Sigma –IQPC. This year’s event ,which was the third edition, took place between March 30 and April 1 at the Hotel Blue Tree Tower on Faria Lima in São Paulo. The chief theme of the congress is the integration between the Lean culture and the Six Sigma methodology.
Being a master sponsor, Setec had a stand where its current and potential clients were received. Furthermore, consultant David Vicentin lectured on “Six Sigma and its multiple solutions” on March 30.To see lecture slides click here: lecture slides.
The event sealed the official launch of the Six Sigma games line. The participants were introduced to Setec’s three games: White Belts Combat, Belts Challenge and Belts Evolution. At Setec’s stand people got to know and play these games..
White Belts Combat is a board game especially aimed at White Belts. In this game, two players duel on a mat striking martial art punches and answering questions on Six Sigma fundaments. Belts Challenge is another board game but it is aimed at Green and Black Belts. These will run a company and need to improve their processes. Belts Evolution is an electronic game in which the challenge is to advance to Six Sigma levels.
TAll those who visited Setec’s stand and left their calling cards there, participated in the raffle of the promoted games at the end of every event day. Besides, the participants’ companies were given a 10% discount on the products for future purchases within 30 days.
In February, Setec Consulting Group’s president, Marcio Abraham, went to Washington, U.S.A to show the Climate Game to the World Bank. This game was developed as a form of awareness and learning of gas carbonic emission and global warming.
It took two months to develop Climate Game. It was managed by Jeannette Galbinski and
both Paulo Sousa and Ricardo Bonacorci took part in its development. Through this team’s interdisciplinary integration and professionals from the environmental department, the games department and innovation department, the game was created and developed. The main point of this project is in the game’s innovative dynamic, which combines cooperation and competition.
Climate Game is a game in which the players are challenged to save the world from over heating, through negotiation, strategy and diplomacy. It is both a game of cooperation and competition. Thus, while there is a collective effort to reduce carbonic gas emission from the planet, each player seeks individual victory to be the first to zero the emission of carbonic gas.
After the project’s approval, The World Bank purchased 350 units of the game which will be delivered at the institution’s Endomarketing department. Furthermore, Setec was invited to market the game at Carbon Expo and to be present at its fair in May, in Barcelona, Spain. Carbon Expo is the largest carbon credit fair in the world. |
