"I completed Mark’s Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt training and I found him to be a really great professional. The course was excellently developed in terms of organization, theoretical and practical content, class participation and material. Mark’s coaching skills and knowledge made it easy to learn Lean and Six Sigma concepts such as Kaizen and Kaizen Blitz, Muda, Value Added and Non-Value Added, Value Stream Mapping, 5S programs, Heijunka, USL and LSL, DPMO, DMAIC, and many more. Mark also engaged and led teams for hands on process improvement to better assimilate learned concepts. I truly think Mark is an excellent Lean Six Sigma expert."

"Mark Ryan is passionate about Lean Six Sigma, which was very evident in the Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt training that he developed and presented and which I was fortunate to attend. It was a well-rounded course including the history of Lean and Six Sigma, and the hybrid Lean Six Sigma as well as benefits of LSS, LSS terminology, and real world exercises using LSS tools. Mark is organized, customer service oriented, and an excellent instructor. Mark Ryan would be a sound investment for any company that needs a leader certified in Lean Six Sigma with a passion for process improvement and the ability to share his wealth of knowledge in a way that is engaging and drives the process home."

"Mark is not just a Lean Six Sigma guru, but a terrific instructor as well. He presents information and principles in a clear fashion, with humor and wit, and supported with real-world examples and anecdotes. He not only presents information, but ensures that those he is instructing understand it. I highly recommend Mark both as an instructor and as an implementer of the principles of "kaizen" to improve the efficiency of any business."

"Mark Ryan prepared and presented a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt training that I attended. His professional attention to detail and instructional leadership is the best that I have had opportunity to see first hand. Mr. Ryan kept the exercises on task and track and the learning at a LEAN pace while optimizing the learning flow and walking with us in the place where value is created. Thank you for the lesson on rapid continuous improvement!"

"I recently attended a Lean Six Sigma certification program facilitated by Mark. The training was definitely “value added” and as an instructor Mark exceeded my expectations. As a Certified Lean Six-Sigma Black Belt, Mark demonstrated that he was an exceptional subject matter expert. He created an “Obeya” that was conducive to learning so all attendees could “Genchi Genbutsu” and practice value stream mapping, one-piece flow and root cause analysis. His visual training guides helped tremendously. The PACE time was spot-on; therefore there was no “Muda”. Mark is a strong leader, outstanding communicator, first-rate trainer and is a “Sensei” that really knows how to connect with his trainees. Thank you Mark!"
