Master Black Belt
"He makes LSS stick — long after the engagement ends."
Full profile →Certified Master Black Belts for executive evaluation, project execution, and full organizational readiness consulting. We make sure your transformation succeeds.
The new leader walks in, spends 6–18 months figuring out where the problems are buried, and the transformation stalls before it starts. Windy Hill Dojo bridges that gap.
Without a pre-built project portfolio, your new executive spends their first year discovering problems that were already visible — if anyone had looked.
Every organization has change champions and blockers. Walking in blind means burning political capital on the wrong battles at the wrong time.
Open leadership seats create program voids. Projects stall, teams drift, and the institutional knowledge that drove progress quietly walks out the door.
The organizations that outperform their peers don't just hire the right leader — they build the right conditions for that leader to succeed.
Whether you're evaluating candidates, keeping projects moving during a transition, or building a complete organizational readiness package — we have a tier for where you are right now.
Find the right leader before you commit.
Most hiring processes for LSS executives rely on certifications and interviews. Neither reliably predicts whether a candidate can build a practice from scratch, lead change in your specific culture, or deliver measurable ROI. We assess candidates against your actual operational context.
Keep momentum while the seat is empty.
Leadership transitions create operational gaps. Projects stall. Teams lose direction. Priority initiatives get deprioritized. We step in as fractional project resources — executing defined LSS projects, maintaining program momentum, and ensuring your new executive inherits a practice in motion, not one that needs to be restarted.
Give your new leader a running start.
The most valuable thing you can do before your new LSS executive arrives is know exactly what they're walking into. Most don't find out for 6–18 months. We compress that learning curve to zero — delivering a complete organizational readiness package before day one.
Each Master on our roster brings decades of documented, real-world results. Read what they do, the industries they know, and reach out when you're ready to talk.

We're a specialized consulting firm focused entirely on Lean Six Sigma and operational excellence. We help organizations hire the right LSS executives, execute projects during leadership transitions, and prepare the organization itself to succeed before a new leader ever walks in the door. Think of us as the bridge between deciding to build an LSS practice and actually having one that works.
Most LSS transformations fail not because the executive wasn't capable — but because the organization wasn't ready. No project portfolio. No cultural baseline. No quick wins lined up. The executive spends their first 12–18 months just getting oriented. Our Tier 3 Readiness Blueprint eliminates that waste entirely, so your new leader can be effective from day one.
Our Masters have delivered documented results across manufacturing, aerospace and defense, banking and financial services, insurance and risk analytics, mortgage and wealth management, healthcare systems, logistics and postal operations, retail, and technology. If your organization runs processes, we can improve them.
It depends on the service tier. Candidate evaluation engagements typically run 2–4 weeks. Project bridge engagements run 3–12 months depending on scope. The full Readiness Blueprint — including process audit, cultural assessment, and project portfolio — typically takes 6–10 weeks to deliver and can run concurrently with your executive search.
Yes. Our Masters work remotely and on-site depending on project needs. All three are available for nationwide engagements. For the Readiness Blueprint in particular, on-site time during the cultural evaluation phase tends to produce the most accurate results — but we structure the model to minimize disruption.
Tell us where you are in the process — hiring, evaluating, or planning a transformation. We'll match you with the right service tier and the right Master.
