Which of the following is NOT related to management-by-objective approach?
A color-coded dashboard
Showing process outcomes on a control chart
Punishing employees when the performance is lower than expected
Showing process outcomes on a control chart
Two P charts (chart X and chart Y) have the same center line. The sample size for each point plotted on X is 45 and the sample size for each point plotted on Y is 90. We would expect:
No difference in control limits for both charts
Wider control limits on X.
Wider control limits on Y.
Wider control limits on X.
If the 90% confidence interval for the likelihood of a satisfied customers is 0.72 to 0.85, then
We are 100% sure that the customers are satisfied 72% to 85% of the time.
There is 10% chance that true likelohood of a satisfied customer is between one-sigma and seven-sigma limits.
There is a 10% chance that the true likelihood of a satisfied customer is less than 0.72 or greater than 0.85.
We are 100% sure that the customers are satisfied 72% of the time.
There is a 10% chance that the true likelihood of a satisfied customer is less than 0.72 or greater than 0.85.
The interpretation of a control chart is based on a set of rules that were developed by Walter Shewhart. The basis of these rules is:
DMAIC
Outcomes of a stable process will have a very small level of variation.
Management by objectives
The normal distribution
