Book Description
Featuring case studies from the industrial and tourism sectors, this book provides an interdisciplinary perspective on the effect of total quality management on business and innovation strategies. The principles of Total Quality Management (TQM) have been widely researched and analyzed as an essential tool for businesses to compete in a globalized economy. This book presents the latest research on the applications of TQM across different functions such as customer service, human resources management and cost control. It demonstrates how the utilization of TQM tools, such as the SERVQUAL model, Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), High Involvement Practices (HIWP) and the EFQM excellence model, impacts a firm’s performance, enhances productivity and innovation and reduces cost, thereby allowing them to compete more effectively in the global market. Building on the extensive literature on the relationship between TQM and business performance, the authors argue that quality acts as a powerful competitive tool that companies should embrace in their corporate strategy. By promoting activities that result in greater efficiency, improved control and management of the organization (internal quality), firms can achieve significant improvement in customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, social impact and business results (external quality) and exceed expectations in these areas.

Manual para la elaboraci¢n e implementaci¢n de un modelo de evaluaci¢n por competencias

Book Description
El presente libro denominado MANUAL PARA LA ELABORACIÓN E IMPLEMENTACION DE UN MODELO DE EVALUACIÓN POR COMPETENCIAS, es el resultado de once años de trabajo, asesoría y acompañamiento a tres grandes instituciones públicas, en donde he sido Rector y de las cuales me siento muy orgulloso. Este manual parte primero desde lo que es la fundamentación, es decir el manejo de conceptos claves como: competencias, evaluación enseñar y aprender desde la perspectiva de procesos. De modo que el lector tenga una clara concepción de lo que debe saber sobre el tema y así poder plantear un modelo y los pasos que se deben seguir para su implementación. Este manual le permite a los docentes crear un modelo práctico de evaluación que facilita la promoción y el éxito de los estudiantes. En la mayoría de países latinoamericanos se habla mucho de competencias, pero no se tiene bien claro que son y cómo aplicarlas en el contexto de la escuela y más complicado aún el cómo volverlas un elemento base para el proceso de evaluación. Este manual pretende ofrecer un enfoque o concepción básica de competencia en donde el docente en un lenguaje sencillo pueda entenderla en toda su esencia y aplicación. Otro aspecto importante de este manual está en ofrecer procedimientos que faciliten el proceso de evaluación en las instituciones educativas, acompañado de una serie de instrumentos que le permitan a las instituciones contar con herramientas que evidencien los avances de la evaluación en las instituciones, herramientas que le darán mayor forma al diseño curricular.

Category : Standards
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
Tras un largo proceso de revisión por parte del Comité Técnico 176 de ISO, el 23 de septiembre de 2015 fue finalmente publicada la nueva y esperada versión de la norma ISO 9001, el modelo de sistemas de gestión más popular y con mayor número de certificados en todo el mundo. Vistos los cambios que aporta esta nueva edición —cambios en la estructura, en el enfoque, en los requisitos, en los términos y conceptos—, el proceso de transición no será una tarea fácil para las personas responsables de la implementación y mantenimiento del sistema, por lo que el principal objetivo de este libro es hacer una descripción sencilla de los cambios y novedades que aporta la nueva versión de la norma de forma que el proceso de transición sea lo más eficaz y menos traumático posible. Este libro es una guía útil tanto para aquellas empresas que aborden la implementación de la norma por primera vez como aquellas que ya estén certificadas. Para ello, se incluyen como anexos la correlación entre los puntos de la antigua versión 2008 y la nueva versión 2015 así como un listado en el que se especifican los nuevos documentos y registros obligatorios, que facilita la optimización del sistema documental.
