Download or read book The Toyota Way of Dantotsu Radical Quality Improvement written by Sadao Nomura and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, author Sadao Nomura taps into his decades of experience leading and advising Toyota operations in a wide variety of operations to tell the story of radical improvement at Toyota Logistics & Forklift (TL&F). This book tells in great detail what the author did with TL&F, how they did it, and the dramatic results that ensued. TL&F has long been a global leader in its industry. TL&F is part of Toyota Industries Corporation, which was founded by Toyota Group founder Sakichi Toyoda almost 100 years ago. Sakichi Toyoda is legendary in the Lean community as the originator of the all-important "JIDOKA" pillar of TPS, which ensures 1) built-in quality and 2) respect for people through ensuring that technology works for people rather than the other way around. Although TL&F seemed to be performing well, insiders knew that, as the founding company of the Toyota group, it needed to do better, especially in the quality performance of its global subsidiary operations. But improvement would not be easy in a company that already prided itself in its history as an exemplar in providing highest quality products and services. In 2006, TL&F requested assistance from Sadao Nomura. The initial request was for Mr. Nomura to support quality improvement in three global operations that had become part of TL&F through acquisition: US, Sweden, and France. Improvement was expected at these affiliates, but the dramatic nature of the improvement was not. Further, the improvement activities were so powerful that they were also instituted at the parent operations in Japan. Over a period of almost ten years, the company with the name most associated with product quality experienced quality improvement unparalleled in its history. "Dantotsu" means "extreme," "radical," or "unparalleled."

Download or read book Improving the Use of Quality Circles in Police Departments written by Harry P. Hatry and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study concludes that the use of quality circles in police departments has the potential to achieve a number of small-scale service improvements in work units that use them. The effective use of quality circles, however, requires modest expenditures for training, overtime pay, and other activities of quality circles. There is no evidence to date that quality circles produce any major improvements in service delivery or productivity. The circles have typically focused on improving working conditions and the resolution of relatively minor, narrowly focused operating problems. Absent continuing maintenance of the circles and the identification of issues that impact employees' work, quality circles tend to deteriorate after a year or two. The long-term survival of quality circles depends on voluntary participation, a motivated facilitator who is given time to devote to the circle's operation, and explicit support and recognition from upper management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management consulting team headed by Mr. Jian Di has provided strategic management consulting services for over 700 medical institutions and has rendered guidance for more than 100 medical institutions in constructing patient-centric hospital cultures. Studies on Hospital Management Transformation reflects Mr Jian Di's more than 40 years of management experience, including nearly 20 years of experience in hospital management. Condensing Mr Jian's thoughts on patient-centric care in hospital culture, this book introduces a method to systematically evaluate and construct hospital culture using 32 procedures and 500 indicators. Theoretically innovative and easy to operate, the proposed system easily produces the desired effect in constructing patient-centric hospital cultures while defying conventional cultural concepts.Due to the absence of a clear evaluation standard and system, the majority of hospital management personnel in China are uncertain of how to evaluate and construct hospital culture. This book presents a theoretical model, evaluation indicators and improvement objectives of hospital culture. Beyond theories, it also includes substantial systematic approaches and practical construction cases which make this book highly applicable. The theoretical system of the patient-centric hospital culture has been applied in over 100 medical institutions. This book should be taken as an essential guidebook for hospital management.

A quality circle (QC) is comprised of a small group of employees who are interdependent and are working on the same task and/or work on a related task or product. The QC meets voluntarily on a regular basis during business hours to discuss the quality of selected work-related problems, and to determine causes, recommend solutions, and implement corrective actions of identified problems to improve the overall quality of task output. The QC has upper management support, and receives training in the techniques of problem-solving, the decision-making group process, and relevant data gathering. Five modules illustrate how to train QC members and leaders. (wz).
