Quality & Me

  • Transform Your Organization through Quality

    I use word “quality” as a proper noun; quality with a capital “Q”; because the effect of quality should not be limited to a policy or a set of rules.

    Is it culture, the weather, geography? Perhaps ignorance of what the right policies are? Simply, no. None of these factors is either definitive or destiny.

The reason for the difference kept puzzling me—why would one company do so much better using the same processes?
