School restructuring and downsizing: using TQM to promote cost effectiveness
Abstract
Examines an alternative to downsizing in the restructuring of organizations. Suggests that the restructuring and downsizing of staff often result from economic inefficiency. They are used to make immediate financial savings and to keep floundering organizations solvent. Such practices seldom produce sustained results. New financial difficulties soon arise because the root of the problem is not addressed – poor management practices.
