Business Case

There are hundreds of hours of JGI employee time dedicated to attending and participating in meetings in each week. I have a

general sense from speaking to various people at the JGI that there are too many meetings, and the format of these meetings are not

effectively to resolve issues.{to be added: the current number of hours data obtained from google calendar via room data?)

Project Statement

Reducing the number of meetings on each JGIer's calendar and the number of meetings JGIers attend has an immediate effect of increasing the number of hours JGIers have to work on other tasks. 

Objective Statement

  • identify current meeting load(number and time) and reduce by 20% on average per person.
  • Introduce and employ Six Sigma methodology and tools to drive the efficiency improvement projects

Project Scope

Reduce number of meetings,
