Definition of Total Quality Management
All of the processes, procedures, quality walks, bonus structures, employee praise and all other means of motivation do little to improve overall quality, if management is seen as aloof and disingaged from the people who decide what quality is (the customer) and the people (the employees,vendors and, subcontractors) and systems who/which deliver it to them. It is the customer who ultimately decides what quality is and a company whose staff and management are disconnected from each other cannot possibly be truly or effectively engaged with the customer.
