MGT596 Embedding Quality and Innovation (8)
Abstract| Quality, organisational ethics and values are interrelated. However, organisations have different stakeholders who will each have their perception of quality that reflects their perceived needs, ethics and values. How these different perceptions can be reconciled will be examined in this subject. Leaders play an important role in embedding innovation and quality and the competencies and activities related to this will be explored. Finally, the impact leaders can have on changing perceptions of quality and how such changes create innovation opportunities which can influence quality perceptions will be reviewed. |
