| Abstract
|
:
|
Hoshin Kanri is not the next big thing in quality, it is a strategic approach to continuous improvement that provides a context for ongoing initiatives such as Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing. David Hutchins' Hoshin Kanri shows you how to develop a dynamic vision for continuous improvement; to implement effective policies to support it; to link key performance indicators to Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing and Kaizen and to sustain a strategy-led programme for improving business performance.
