Book Description
The charismatic transformational leader, who creates a 'vision' for the future of their organization and persuades others to follow their path towards it, is now the dominant viewpoint that underpins government policies towards leadership development in the English-speaking world.
This book offers a much-needed corrective to this orthodoxy by focusing on current research and thinking about 'leadership' rather than 'leaders. A wide range of prominent international contributors present a rare self critical look at their own assertions and test alternative leadership models against recent research projects. They also demonstrate how their analysis is relevant to all countries where leadership is an issue.
Major features include:
] alternative theories to understanding
the nature of leadership
] how leadership could be analyzed
] re-analysis of recent research carried out by contributors in the light of one or more of the alternative theories examined
] implications of the alternative perspectives for leadership training
This book is recommended to all staff and students involved in educational leadership, management or administration programmes.

Organizational Systems.......2005-08-26
Leadership in management depends on connection between people. "Change policy is the set of assumptions, diagnostic conclusions, and guidelines that serve as the basis for amanaging specific change." (p. 169) The center is diagnosis of what is wrong. Action is key. The book covers methods for change thoroughly, practically and in detail. There are many straight-forward charts and diagrams from getting started to final examination. There are specific activities for change managers including how to sell ideas and Total Quality Management. The book is an excellent read in a highly competitive market. Eric J. Lindblom PhD Harvard

Introduction to Statistical Quality Control
ASIN: 0078443547 |
Book Description
This title is a substantial revision of one of the leading textbooks designed for the statistical quality control course taught in departments of industrial engineering, operations research and statistics . While maintaining its already successful writing style and pedagogy, this title has also incorporated key organizational changes in order to reflect recent trends in the field. The text features large quantity of examples and student problems and a strong introduction to the proper use and misuse of control charts. In this edition several chapters were streamlined, and consolidations and profitability were brought forward in the text. There is new material on experimental design, a reduced emphasis on acceptance sampling, and enhanced attention to the managerial and organizational aspects of quality control. Free SPC expert software is packaged with the text for use as a statistical and graphical tool. Text plus 3.5" diskette.
Customer Reviews:
the book that started it all, price insane.......2007-07-17
5 star for the book. 1 star for the price.
This can be considered THE classic on the subject. It is also well written, explaining exactly what one is trying to achieve and how statistics fit that bill. As a newbie on the subject and not being a fan of math, I found this book the best explanation for the entire concept of using statistic and sampling to achieve certain levels of quality. Perhaps because it starts at the very beginning of the issue of quality and consistency, it is easy to grasp.
I wanted to point out that McGraw Hill sells this book in forign markets, still in english, for less than ten bucks, paperback version. Given that, I strongly suggest one hunt around the net.
Painful to use........2006-06-20
This book is horrible.
This book is outdated (it comes with a floppy disk that I havn't found to work on any computer). It also provides very few examples as to grasp what is being talked about in the material. There are also (from the limited answers provided) answers that are wrong. This book is also extremely expensive for the amount of material provided. I have seen many books provide much more information for half the price.
Just thought I'd chip in my own two cents since the other reviews seem oddly impresonal and similar (the two that are different).
Undisputably the best for practitioners in this field!.......1999-08-10
This book has been around for about half a century, yet it is still the very best among just about as many similar titles in SQC. It is full of statistical and practical insights into all that a quality practitioner needs to know about the subject. I used the book as a student, and am still using it as a professor, and as an Academician of the International Academy for Quality.

A Qaulity Control Engineer's desk reference.......1997-11-16
It has not been easy to find a book on Quality Control which covers all the basics and depth on this subject. This is ONE book which I strongly recommend to all readers who wish to analyse the different methods in Statistical Quality Control. Many readers, will be surprised, just like me on the depth of the material. The organisation and presentation of the material is first class. Although this book is usable in college level teaching in this subject, but I find it much more meaningful as a practicing guide. The writers have demonstrated their wealth of knowledge in this book. I guarded it as a MUST read book for practioner in SQC.

Book Description
Although much has been written touting Six Sigma and its benefits, many are still confused about what exactly Six Sigma is and why it is extremely beneficial.
Six Sigma Fundamentals cuts through the "fluff" of conventional Six Sigma jargon and provides the reader with a solid understanding of what defines a Six Sigma initiative and what is expected from the organization, management, and customer. Each chapter fully addresses the concepts of the Six Sigma philosophy and explains the methodologies for real-world applications. Included with the text is a CD-ROM containing more than 75 ready-to-use Six Sigma forms. Six Sigma Fundamentals gives an overview to the entire process - from understanding the significance of "customer requirements" all the way to "Designing for Six Sigma" and "implementation strategy." The model tools, methodology, and goals are explained thoroughly, so that this powerful system may be applied to organizations that are concerned with drastic positive changes to both customer satisfaction and profitability.
With a focus on both manufacturing as well as non-manufacturing organizations, Six Sigma Fundamentals demystifies the methodologies, identifies the tools needed for accurate deployment, and enables the reader to explain the design of Six Sigma within the organization.
Customer Reviews:
Is Dean Stamatis a convert?.......2004-03-19
Dean Stamatis has been known for his opposition to Six Sigma. The following are direct quotes from a paper that he wrote in Quality Digest:
"We don't need the Six Sigma methodology to improve efficiency and productivity in our products; rather, we need to stop issuing "letters of deviation" and "waivers" from our specifications (especially at the product submittal warrant stage)."
"We don't need the Six Sigma methodology to improve throughput and timing. Rather, we need to stick to the milestones of timing and follow the guidelines of APQP. We need management's commitment for consistency and concern for improvement."
"We don't need the Six Sigma methodology for transactional problems such as paying suppliers within 90 days to 120 days; rather, we need to recognize that suppliers have to be paid on timely basis."
So Dean did you really convert, or is this a convenient book to cash in on Six Sigma's popularity?

A sound introductory text.......1999-08-12
This book could serve as the text for an introductory course in Quality Management and Control at the junior or senior level. If an engineering or business undergraduate can afford only one course in Quality, then this would be a suitable text for that course. The level of mathematics can be well managed by students not particularly good at analytical skills.
