Quality as an Organizational Strategy describes an approach to leading organizations based on W. Edwards Deming's charge that leaders need a new theory of management and a strategy built on quality. The book defines quality as a strategy and describes a framework of five activities for leaders that can generate both immediate results and long-term performance. The framework aligns the functions of measurement, marketing, planning, and execution of improvement projects to optimize the performance of any organization.
