About Blogger: Michael Cyger

Michael Cyger is founder and past chairman of CTQ Media and iSixSigma.

Michael Cyger is an entrepreneur, businessman, speaker, and author who has spent his professional life turning passions into profitability. From 2000-2008, he reversed traditional publishing pathways by exploiting the burgeoning interest in Internet communities and his personal dedication to flawless business execution through Six Sigma. His start-up company, CTQ Media, began by launching iSixSigma.com, an online portal that now attracts more than 600,000 unique visitors each month. That site offers the largest online job portal focused on process improvement. The flagship, award-winning print publication, iSixSigma Magazine, reached more than 14,000 paid business professionals with each issue. Michael also launched iSixSigma Live!, the in-person events division of iSixSigma, producing and organizing events for hundreds of people and organizations, including the Department of Defense.

Before becoming a successful entrepreneur, Michael was employed by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, GE Power Systems, GE Capital Commercial Equipment Finance, GE Capital Corporate and Citigroup. He was trained in many of GE’s leadership and management courses at the Crotonville Learning Center and is a graduate of the prestigious GE Edison Engineering Program. He also consulted for Internet high-flyer About.com.

In January 2008, Michael sold CTQ Media to Schofield Media Group, a London-based international media company backed by private equity firm Veronis Suhler Stevenson. He continues to consult, coach executives and helps staff some of the most dynamic organizations in the world. His background and ability to customize presentations with life stories, real-world business experience and research into relevant trends worldwide makes him an oft-requested speaker. He has been a regular columnist and contributor to both Executive Decision Magazine and iSixSigma Magazine, and is the founding publisher of both iSixSigma.com and iSixSigma Magazine.
