“Green.” What is it? What does it mean? Green is all over the news and is in most marketing campaigns these days. We talk about green jobs, becoming green, recycling and carbon off setting. Every company has a “greener product” and every politician has a position on green. No matter what happens in Washington D.C., it is clear that green will be around for a while and that at some point your business will have to address it.

This book addresses “green” in ways that will be familiar to those who apply the tools of quality and understand managing and improving processes. Applying the management approach presented in the ISO standards (including the forthcoming ISO 26000 standard on Social Responsibility), the quality measurement tools used for decades, as well as improvement methodologies such as Lean and Six Sigma, every quality professional is well positioned to lead their company in the quest to take advantage of the cost reductions and increased sales that will result from being a truly green company.
