Description:

Self-assessment has emerged as a potentially powerful tool for assessing weakneses and planning improvement within companies. This text integrates self-assessment and improvement into the corporate strategic planning cycle.

Synopsis:

In today's competitive (sometimes hypercompetitive) environments, companies need tools that can help them to assess their weaknesses and plan improvements. Self-assessment has emerged as a potentially powerful tool for this purpose. Until now self-assessment has been considered as a by-product of Quality Award Assessments. As such, it is more apt to identify already excellent companies than to spot weaknesses in any kind of company. Moreover, award models and approaches lack diagnostic power. This book proposes a model that is no longer a TQM model but a "business model" and a highly diagnostic process.This text integrates self-assessment and subsequent improvement planning into the corporate strategic planning cycle to create a real business model. This book should be useful for quality managers and consultants. It should also be of interest to managers involved in strategic and operational business planning in industry, service and administration as well as academics involved in managerial and organizational disciplines.
