About this listen
Studies show that companies waste millions of dollars on team building, benchmarking, and other quality initiatives. Yet so many save millions with the same initiatives. What makes the difference? Total Quality Management—integrating initiatives into a systematic quality improvement process. Employee involvement works, but only as way of running a business. It is not something you dabble in. It does not work as a short-term solution or an intriguing experiment. It is truly a Pandora's Box, tempting to open but powerful enough to change your "world" forever. The main difference is that instead of releasing all the ills that could plague humanity, unlocking this box produces a torrent of positive energy, enthusiasm, ideas, and improvements.
If you want to know how today's most successful companies are getting the most from their quality initiatives, listen to Total Quality Management. It lays out the best practices for you to put work-today.

Story
I believe fulfillment is a right and not a privilege. We are all entitled to wake up in the morning inspired to go to work, feel safe when we’re there and return home fulfilled at the end of the day. Achieving that fulfillment starts with understanding exactly WHY we do what we do. As Start With Why has spread around the world, countless readers have asked me the same question: How can I apply Start With Why to my career, team, company or nonprofit? Along with two of my colleagues, Peter Docker and David Mead, I created this hands-on, step-by-step guide to help you find your WHY.
