Book Description

Evans/Lindsay is a market leader in the TQM field. James Evans, a well-known author, is the current president of the Decision Sciences Institute. With his past experience as an examiner for the Malcolm Baldrige Award, the entire book is heavily influenced by the framework and essential content of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award criteria. The authors believe the principles of total quality, as reflected in the Baldrige Award, provide the best overall synthesis of the concept of quality. Management and Control of Quality presents an up-to-date, managerially-oriented, integrated view of quality management while also blending in a variety of technical topics.

Book Description

In this book Anthony Heywood reassesses Bolshevik attitudes toward economic modernization and foreign economic relations during the early Soviet period. Based on hitherto unused Russian and Western archives, the book examines an extraordinary decision made in March 1920 to import vast quantities of railway equipment in order to achieve rapid economic modernization. This is the first detailed case study of the government's import policy, and provides readers with a new perspective on Soviet economic development, revealing the scale of Bolshevik business dealings with the capitalist West immediately after the Revolution.

Download Description

In this book Anthony Heywood reassesses Bolshevik attitudes towards economic modernisation and foreign economic relations during the early Soviet period. Based on hitherto unused Russian and Western archives, he examines an extraordinary decision made in March 1920 to import vast quantities of railway equipment. The book argues that under War Communism and the NEP railway modernisation was vital to a strategy of rapid economic modernisation, and provides the first detailed case study of the government's import policy. Following the histories of the principal contracts, it analyses Soviet foreign trade as a means to tackle domestic economic challenges. This book provides readers with a new perspective on Soviet economic development, and reveals the scale of Bolshevik business dealings with the capitalist West immediately after the Revolution.

no tools, just description of one company's program.......2005-04-30

If you are browsing this subject, you probably have already decided that "improving the communication skills of your...people" is important. Now you are looking for information about how to go about doing that. Keep looking, this article has little such information. It is a review of one organization's process for going about setting up a program. It is presented as motivation for the rest of us to set up a program to do the same thing. Well, thanks, but I am already plenty motivated. It isn't the author's fault. The article is well-written enough and the title is not intentionally misleading. Just realize that there is no useful content for someone looking for tools and techniques for improving the communication skills of employees. That's what I was looking for, and I wasted my money.

From the supplier: The Workforce Training Center, a three-year pilot program at the State Technical Institute in Memphis, TN, is seeking to provide computer-assisted instruction that stresses job-skills and basic literacy. The program is a response to the fact that there are 160,000 functionally illiterate people in the Memphis area and that 80 percent of the two-year institution's 10,000 students require remedial work to prime them for successful post-secondary studies. The WTC was located in the learning center along with the college's Multimedia Skills Center, with both groups sharing the Novell network consisting of 40 IBM PS/2 55SX microcomputers and a PS/2 80 file server. The local area network is capable of delivering a wide range of courseware in elementary to college level math, reading and language skills. According to pre- and post-test instruments, some students gained three to six grade levels, while less motivated students regressed. The administrators of the program continue to develop a more effective framework for grounding the results of the training in job-related life skills.
