The examinations represented a group of organizations well experienced with the implementation of total quality management and, in the case of part II, the five organizations studied were all winners of prestigious quality awards. Presents critical areas for effective people management, in many instances supported by the findings of other studies. Also presents evidence of best practice as highlighted by this study and discussed in the earlier papers.
