A more subjective approach to business improvement and organizational change evaluation

Article Abstract:

Subjective and less quantifiable measures can be used to develop effective quality management models. They account for situational factors such as stakeholder perception toward strategy modifications, initiative outcomes, staff changes and cross-functional effectiveness. These perceptions can be used as indicators for future managerial decisions and actions.
