  20. Methods for Generating Ideas • Brainstorming • Quality circles • Interviewing • Benchmarking • 5W2H MTSU Management 362

  21. Criticisms of the TQM Approach • Blind pursuit of TQM programs • Programs may not be linked to the strategy in a meaningful way • Quality-related decisions may not be tied to market performance • Failure to carefully plan a program can lead to false starts, employee confusion, and meaningless results MTSU Management 362
