Process improvement is about how things work
or don’t work.
Even with TQM, SPC and other initiatives, organizations
often overlook many tasks that provide rich opportunities to increase productivity
and reduce costs.
If businesses were true teams, they’d recruit and train
talent like pro sports teams.
Employee groups don’t become teams just by calling them
teams. Developing productive teams is a serious process, not an event.
Knowledge can’t be managed, because it’s
a shifting target.
However, it must be captured to avoid "reinventing
the wheel". Unfortunately, best practices are carried around in peoples’
heads or scrawled on napkins.
