Dr Sajid
He who fails to plan, plans to fail When planning for a year, plant corn. When planning for a decade, plant trees. When planning for life, train & educate people. Chinese Proverbs quotes

- Helen Keller
CLSQ Approach
Vision + Leadership
VLSQ Approach
If a company is so good in its business and if it has no crisis nor crisis consciousness, what then could serve as a driving force for TQM A forward looking grand vision would mobilize people to sweat hard for the sake of achieving that vision. The vision must be the one which could really motivate people to sweat willingly. For quality.
CLSQ Approach
Someone has to pull the people in the same direction so that this sense of crisis will materialize effectively as a moving force for the entire organization. Thus the crisis consciousness pushes and the leadership pulls the organization to motivate people to sweat for quality.
Thats a good idea. But Our Quality has already achieved at a certain high level. Hence, we need not do so to such a extent.
