The role of management is to change the process rather than badgering individuals to do better.” W.

Dit jaar is het dertig jaar geleden dat William Edwards Deming overleed, maar zijn invloed op Lean en Six Sigma blijft groot. Velen kennen hem van statistisch onderbouwde procesverbetering, Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA). Intrigerend is dat Deming geen voorstander is van management by objectives: hoe is dat te rijmen met PDSA? Niels Pflaeging verzamelde in Wat would Deming do? een groot aantal quotes. Daaruit wordt duidelijk dat Deming zich keert tegen korte termijn doelen, die aanzetten tot competitie binnen een systeem. We moeten stoppen met deze afrekencultuur!

“Dr. Deming never allowed the term ‘TQM’ to go unchallenged. At a meeting in Scotland, he saw a TQM poster on the wall. “Is this a TQM meeting?” he said. “I wouldn’t have come if I’d known. There is such a thing as guilt by association”. This startled many people, because the parts of the Deming philosophy that have an obvious and immediate appeal deal with the continual improvement of products and processes. These are often described as TQM. But they are just the things that Dr. Deming dismissed as ‘essential but unimportant’ “.
From: Kerridge, D. and S. Kerridge (1995) ‘Guilty by Association’, British Deming Association internal publication ‘Variation’, January

And thus incredibly dumb.
All of them.
