Why is it important?
Even with the large volume of articles published about the Green Lean Six Sigma (GLSS) theme, it was not possible to identify papers that aim to verify the impacts of LSS methodology over the organization with a holistic and sustainable point of view. Within this scenario, the present study seeks to fill the verified gap.
Perspectives
This study assists in expansion of knowledge about the use of LSS by evaluating the influence of the metodologie over organizational sustainability and providing a deeper understanding of the relationship existing between them. Because of its feature, this study also raises the awareness among governments and companies regarding the weaknesses identified between TBL pillars. The survey application model through the LinkedIn platform presented in this study also shows itself as a possible source of inspiration for future studies.
