a) Employees – Traditional management views management as a commodity and are passive contributors with little autonomy. Under TQM, people are active contributors and are recognized for their creativity and intelligence.
b) Quality – In traditional management, quality is adherence to internal specifications and standards. Inspection is required to control defects and there is no innovation. In TQM, quality is defined as products and services that go beyond the present needs and expectations of customers. Innovation is required for improving quality continuously.
c) Customers – Under traditional management, customers are always considered as outsiders while under TQM, focus is mainly on customers.
d) Under traditional management, focus is …show more content…
Key tools for getting at the root cause of problems in a healthcare setting would be challenging as it would require tools such as video taping.
b) Control – It would also be challenging to generate a detailed solution monitoring plan, observing implemented improvements for success, updating plan records on a regular basis and maintaining a workable employee training routine in a setting where most staff work on shifts.
Steps easy to achieve:
a) Define stage – I think in a healthcare setting it would be easy to identify the problem clearly, determine its financial impact and select and organize the right people to solve it (team creation).
b) Measure – Deciding what parameters need to be quantified, work out the best way to measure them, collect the necessary data, and carry out the measurements by experiment. It’s easy to better understand a process through use of check sheets, run charts and pareto …show more content…
If the process behaves consistently over time, then we say that the process is in control. A process is in statistical control when all special causes of variation have been removed and only common cause variation remains. If a process is in control, we know what to expect in the finished product. Statistical quality control only pays attention to the internal state of the process. Control charts are used to determine whether a process is in statistical control or
