Guide to Deming Management Theory
The Deming method can bring new quality, productivity and profits to your companyDeming asserted that quality control issues arise from poor management. According to Deming theory, management's job is neither to assess employee output numerically (encouraging speed at the expense of quality) nor to inspect product quality after production, but rather to create a production process and company culture that encourage exceptional workmanship. Some ways Deming proposed to do this (from his 14 points of management) are these:
1. Share company goals with employees.
2. Drive out fear, create trust and raise employee morale.
3. Provide effective leadership.
4. Reduce conflict between departments.
5. Focus on quality rather than quotas.
6. Implement on-the-job training.
7. Work continually to improve quality and productivity.
8. Adapt to changing economic and industry needs.
