Therefore, those who prepare their employees to cope with all coming change will be the companies of the future. Successful organizations see the changes coming and with preplanning to overcome the resistance before it even manifests.

Quality has both tangible and intangible characteristics. When you see it, you know it. Quality readiness is a key indicator of overall business differentiation and maturity. Where there are ineffectiveness and inefficiency in business management, there are quality gaps existing. Developing the business scope of best/next process to focus on improving quality attributes takes work and a level of credibility within the organization. From the business management perspective, quality (Efficiency + Effectiveness = Q) is doing the right thing right, the first time, with no backlog and wastage and highest customer satisfaction rate. Generally, you have to have effectiveness first, and then make the effect more efficient. Quality Management is basically the fundamental purpose of serving the customer and meeting/exceeding their expectations. The rest of them are the tools, which can be used as the situation warrants. From a talent management perspective, quality is the perfect mix of confidence and humility; character and charisma, creativity and discipline; toughness and gentleness; intelligence and childishness; uniqueness and fit-in, inquisitiveness and resourcefulness, the right dose of ego, and the good taste, etc. As a degree of quality is in everything people do and experience, quality management is to help them in doing what they are doing better, easier and so on. What is required is clarifying the purpose and engaging all the people involved in working together as a team to excel in the delivery of product/service/solutions. Quality management is not just the task of one specific department, it is the cross-disciplinary practice.
