There are many standards, methods and perhaps most confusing, but most importantly of all acronyms in use in the field of quality management, and especially so in the field of technology-based products. From the seemingly simple concepts of ISO 9000 (and the military MIL standards from which that grew) to statistical and analytical methods like Statistical Process Control (SPC) the range of complexity and compliance is staggering. What the average quality engineer or manager needs is a simple guide to what these are, how they relate to one another and most critically how to take advantage of and implement the benefits of each. This book provides that guidance. Written by a quality consultant with over 20 years experience in precisely these fields, including work with the US Defense Department, Boeing, Lockheed-Martin, Raytheon, and many other leading companies, this book provides an easily digestible toolbox of solutions to quality and management problems for every engineer, manager and even student looking for those answers for the medium to high-technology sector manufacturing company. This is a highly practical book which includes all the major topics in quality as well as case studies from relevant real-world situations yet without the need to wade through reams of reference materials and international standards verbiage. If you need to get to the bottom of problems like these, you need this book. Targetted at the Technology company engineer and quality manager Highly illustrated, comprehensive subject coverage Practical examples and case studies used throughout

Anxious about that new management job? Need solid guidelines for getting organized? Start out on the fast track to corporate success by mastering the skills used by experienced, high-achieving managers. Get answers to those day-to-day questions that confront supervisors in companies large or small. Do budgeting and tracking (graphs and charts illustrate common financial mistakes); interview and select job candidates wisely; promote and appraise employees fairly; and prepare for the difficult task of firing someone. Understand networking in all its facets: mentoring, establishing connections both inside and outside of the job, and ethics. Because so much business communication takes place through letters, memos, and contracts, managers require a thorough knowledge of writing. Always keep in mind that a written document is permanent--errors can come back to haunt you. Remember that most business people are busy, so forego lengthy reports for something concise and clear. In no time, you'll be managing your job-and your career-with maximum effectiveness! Originally published as Managing Effectively. Sterling 192 pages, 6 x 9.
