TQM at Corning & Xerox
[ send me this paper
]
A 10 page paper discussing Total Quality
Management at Xerox and Corning. Though TQM is
normally only mentioned in passing now if it
indeed is mentioned at all, both Xerox and
Corning have incorporated its practices and
philosophies into their own corporate cultures
to the point that it is not a separate entity
that needs to be discussed. Instead, it is
simply something that is. Because TQM is such
an integral part of the full operation of each
company, it has nearly taken a life of its
own, with care of employees, care of
customers, efficient production and quality
workmanship being so intertwined that they
cease to be separate entities. Bibliography
lists 12 sources.

Team
Formation at DuPont
[ send me this paper
]
A 13 page paper discussing employee
empowerment and increased productivity at
DuPont. In continuous operation since its
founding in 1802, DuPont has a history of
being able to adapt for the times. In recent
years, DuPont's ability to implement work
teams in accordance to the principles of Total
Quality Management has been hampered by union
resistance. Company management needs to keep
DuPont as efficient as possible and employees
see value in being able to take an active role
in making their jobs both easier and more
productive, but the union maintains that the
company is seeking to gain additional work
from employees with no increase in pay. The
paper provides DuPont history and recommends
involving union representatives in team
discussions to alleviate union resistance.
