| Abstract: | The prevailing role of management system in the west is explored, one which has discouraged individual initiative. The results are decreased innovation and reduction of applied technology. To restore motivation, innovation and joy in work and learning a transformation of management is needed. The central role of knowledge in shaping the transformation process is reaffirmed. This transformation requires application of a system of profound knowledge and an understanding of processes and statistics, including system optimization, statistical variation and losses resulting from tampering. Management must also comprehend human behavior and cultural forces. |
