When our quality is poor we lose and we fail.
The Japanese did it! They waged a quality war way back in the 1950s
when their quality was at its worst.
They began by sending delegations to foreign countries to study
their methods of quality. They translated literature on quality into Japanese.
They invited quality experts from all over the world to teach the Japanese
about quality. Today every Japanese product spells quality infact it shouts
quality out so loud that we can hear and see it even at a great distance! In
Japan, the quality war is on till today.
What do we have to say about quality in India? We
mostly say chalta
hai for everything. Or anything goes. Chalta hai is a terrible attitude to have. If the strong
quality commitment of the Japanese can pay off with such fantastic results we
must learn from them! We must start a Quality
Revolution of our own. And since
charity begins at home, lets start with personal quality first. Does each one
of us follow these quality rules?
- Do you make sure that your words and actions are in harmony?
- Do you talk to people and not about them?
- Do you create an atmosphere of love, trust, harmony and openness around you?
- Do you demand quality and deliver quality every single time?
- Do you go that extra mile to ensure quality?
- Do you learn new skills so that at the end of the year you are not stagnant?
- Are you ethical? Do you keep your promises each time?
- Do you avoid mistakes, admit them when you make them and take criticism positively?
- Are you committed?
- Do you put your best foot forward each and every time?
If
your answers to these questions is no or a half hearted yes, you need to work
harder on improving your quality. If it is a resounding yes, congratulations, because you have surpassed the wildest expectations of those
around you. Your self esteem is great, and you are proud of your work and of
yourself. You are an example for others.
Lets start a quality revolution. Lets get as good as or better than other quality conscious countries. Lets wage a quality war and win it! No more chalta hai when nobody’s looking. No more bribing, spitting on
the roads, plagiarism, gossip, half hearted work......these MUST NOT do any
more.
