Download or read book Unleash Quality written by Arron S. Angle and published by Quality Press. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quality has been around for years-why would it need to be unleashed? The truth is, the power of quality comes from actions that stem from behaviors-behaviors that apply to every department within a company. In other words, a company's culture. For years, these behaviors have been restrained. Quality has been focused in segments of a company's population, rather than applied to every department from top to bottom. This is where most companies fail in their deployment of quality-by not treating it as a cultural imperative. The aim of this book is to provide guidance on how to correct that in your organization. Inside, you'll find what you need to implement a cultural transformation that will drive long-term sustainable growth and improvement to your organization's bottom line. You'll start by learning the aspects of a behavior-based quality culture and how to unleash an organization's potential by adopting and promoting the behaviors and actions associated with compliance, prevention and improvement. Once this is unleashed, real sustainable profit generation begins. You'll then move into how to implement a behavior-based quality culture at your organization. This will include: Recommendations on strategy development. Considerations for organizational structure. How to build metrics by department that drive change. How to maintain a behavior-based culture of quality. Who should read this book? There is truly something in here for everyone. Executives: This book provides foundational knowledge and a how-to approach to unleash quality to achieve bottom-line results. Quality professionals: Use this book as instructional material for staff and managers about the power of quality. Managers: Apply the knowledge from this book to set the pace for a behavior-based quality culture at your organization.
Book Synopsis Why the Bottom Line Isn't! by : Dave Ulrich
Download or read book Why the Bottom Line Isn't! written by Dave Ulrich and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-05-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers a broad view of leadership and shareholder value based on multiple business disciplines In Why the Bottom Line Isn't! authors Dave Ulrich and Norm Smallwood argue that sustainable shareholder value comes increasingly from assets not accounted for on an organization's balance sheet. These assets include a company's reputation, its ability to attract talent, and its ability to react quickly to new opportunities in the marketplace. Why the Bottom Line Isn't! harnesses research from a number of disciplines including human resources, finance, and leadership to establish a hierarchy of such intangibles. The authors extrapolate from these intangibles to establish leadership tools that will help create sustainable shareholder value. The book offers a broad, expansive perspective on leadership while eschewing convoluted theory for concrete practice. Dave Ulrich, Ph.D., ([email protected]) has been listed by BusinessWeek as the top "guru" in management education. He has co-authored 10 books and over 100 articles, serves on the Board of Directors of Herman Miller, and has consulted with over half of the Fortune 200 companies. He is currently on professional leave as Professor at the University of Michigan to serve as Mission President for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Montreal. Norm Smallwood ([email protected]) is co-founder of Results-Based Leadership (www.rbl.net), which provides education and consulting services based on this book as well as the ideas in Results-Based Leadership: How Leaders Build the Business and Improve the Bottom Line, which he co-authored with Ulrich. He has led leadership development, business strategy, organization capability, change management, and HR projects for a wide variety of clients spanning multiple industries.

Download or read book Safety and the bottom line written by Frank E. Bird and published by . This book was released on 1996-12-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is good evidence that a close relationship exists between management effectiveness & safety performance. A Canadian company says "safety & efficient operation are one & the same thing." Safety is (a) an excellent vehicle for accomplishing nearly everything we have to accomplish; (b) even more it is a brutally sharp measuring tool for telling us the results we are - or are not - getting. In the late 1980s, Paul O'Neill former CEO of ALCOA, proclaimed that safety would be FIRST in all actions. Combined profits for 1988 & 1989 were more than double the total of the 8 previous years. Mr. O'Neill's article, "A New Way To Wake Up A Giant," appeared in Fortune magazine October 22, 1990. Frank E. Bird, Jr. & Ray J. Davies, internationally known safety leaders, describe in detail; the reasons these positive benefits accompany the application of a good safety program in a just released, 325 page book, SAFETY & THE BOTTOM LINE. "Safety Develops a Quality Prone Environment," is typical of chapters describing Bottom Line benefits from the good, human relationship, value of safety, that was recognized as early as 2200BC in the Hammurabi Code.

Book Synopsis The Cost of Bad Behavior by : Christine Pearson
Download or read book The Cost of Bad Behavior written by Christine Pearson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-07-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why incivility at work is a bigger problem than you suspect In an accessible and informative style, Pearson and Porath examine the toll that bad behavior can have on otherwise well-functioning companies. And they reveal strategies that successful organizations are using to stop incivility before it takes hold. Whether it's a standoffish coworker or an arrogant boss, incivility at the office doesn't just affect the moods of a few employees; it hurts an entire company. Consider these statistics: 12 percent of all employees say they've left jobs because they were treated badly. Fortune 1000 executives spend roughly seven weeks per year resolving employee conflicts. And an astonishing 95 percent of Americans say they've experienced rudeness at work. Christine Pearson and Christine Porath examine the devastating toll that bad behavior can have on otherwise well-functioning companies. Combining their own scientific research with stories from fields as diverse as criminology, education, and psychology, they show how to spot the roots of incivility, rip them out, and create a culture of respect. They urge managers to stop making excuses, set a zero-tolerance policy, and lead by example. Bestsellers like The No Asshole Rule and The Power of Nice have shown the hunger for more civility at work; now The Cost of Bad Behavior shows exactly what to do about it.

Book Synopsis Linking Customer and Employee Satisfaction to the Bottom Line by : Derek R. Allen
Download or read book Linking Customer and Employee Satisfaction to the Bottom Line written by Derek R. Allen and published by Quality Press. This book was released on 2002-06-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most organizations recognize the impact that both customer and employee satisfaction have on overall financial performance. Actually acting on that information is the hard part. That is the focus of Linking Customer and Employee Satisfaction to the Bottom Line, which focuses on the relationship between customer satisfaction and tangible business outcomes like market share, revenue, and profitability. Intended for advanced service quality managers and marketing researchers with more than a modest exposure to statistical data analysis, this book provides a comprehensive overview of how these data may be related to critical business outcomes. Perhaps more importantly, researchers with mature customer satisfaction systems may use the techniques described in this book to maximize the value of their existing programs. While no technique or methodology can guarantee a strong link between customer satisfaction and key business outcomes, this book can ensure that appropriate scales, variables, and assumptions are used.
Book Synopsis Why Quality is Important and How It Applies in Diverse Business and Social Environments, Volume I by : Paul Hayes
Download or read book Why Quality is Important and How It Applies in Diverse Business and Social Environments, Volume I written by Paul Hayes and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2020-12-24 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two volumes are about understanding—why—and application—how—with the aim of providing guidance and introduction to both. Quality is the consistent achievement of the user’s expectations of a product or service. The achievement needs to be “The right thing, right first time, every time, in time.” Beginning with manufacturing and services, it also includes professional, personal, and spiritual dimensions. Variation does not sit happily with consistency and skill in handling risk and opportunity requires competence in the use of statistics, probability, and uncertainty; and needs to complement the critically essential soft dimensions of quality and the overarching and underpinning primacy of personal relationships. There are no clear boundaries to the applicability of quality and the related processes and procedures expressed in management systems, and this is why it matters so much to show “how it applies in diverse business and social environments.” Increasingly, the acceptability of boundaries that are drawn depends on their effect on the user and the achievement of quality, and the latest standards on quality management are explicit on this key point. Quality is everyone’s business, and there is no single professional discipline that can properly express this. Insights, knowledge, experience, best practice, tools, and techniques need to be shared across all kinds of organizational and professional boundaries, and there is no departmental boundary that can stand apart from the organization-wide commitment to quality achievement.
