Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

A supplemental text for business, management, engineering, and other courses that introduce TQM at a level below that of a dedicated TQM course. A slimmed-down version of the Goetsch and Davis Quality Management text, this volume serves as a self-training and how-to handbook for prospective managers, supervisors, engineers and others who are interested in applying the total quality philosophy for continual improvement of their organizations, products and services. It covers the full scope and range of the subject--from its origin and history through practical application of its philosophy and tools. It provides easily-followed step-by-step plans for even the most complex methodologies.

Contraportada

Total Quality Handbook provides practical, easy-to-use information for both students and practitioners in the field of quality management. Global competition and the ever-increasing expectations of customers demand that organizations improve their performance continually. This need for continual improvement is unrelenting and ongoing. Performance levels that are competitive today may not be competitive tomorrow. An organization's products, processes, people, and services must get better every day if it is going to survive and prosper in the global marketplace.

• All information is presented in a practical, easily applied format with extensive use of checklists and other helpful tools.
• Only the core "must-know" information about total quality is included. There is no "fluff" to sort through.

Major topics covered are as follows:

• Strategic planning
• Quality culture
• Customer satisfaction
• Empowerment of employees
• Leadership
