Tiivistelmä: | Understanding the wide range of outcomes achieved by firms trying to implement Total Quality Management (TQM) and similar process improvement initiatives presents a challenge to management theory: A few firms reap sustained benefits from their programs, but most efforts fail and are abandoned. In this paper the author studies one dimension of this phenomenon: the role of impending layoffs in determining employee commitment to process improvement. |
