How Six Sigma ‘killed’ innovation at 3M?

“The Six Sigma process killed innovation at 3M. Initially what would happen in 3M with Six Sigma people, they would say they need a five-year business plan for [a new idea]. Come on, we don't know yet because we don't know how it works, we don't know how many customers [will take it up], we haven't taken it out to the customer yet.“
- Geoff Nicholson, Father of Post-It notes initiative

- Henry Ford
We do no market research. We don’t hire consultants. The only consultants I’ve ever hired in my 10 years is one firm to analyze Gateway’s retail strategy so I would not make some of the same mistakes they made [when launching Apple’s retail stores]. But we never hire consultants, per se. We just want to make great products- Steve Jobs
