Well, I'm not defending 6S, but in virtually every case one doesn't need to know a thing about another's job to tell another how to do it better. This is because no matter what you produce, you produce a product that others buy. And you either do that efficiently and market and sell your product effectively or you don't. If someone is trained well, they can, right out of school, wring millions out of a company's costs and/or ramp up sales by orders of magnitude. There are many firms that specialize in doing exactly this and their client's stock price show it. 6S is a way to try to do this on the cheap, because to hire one of these firms is a min of $1,000,000.
