Quality professionals must be in the vanguard of helping organizations increase competitiveness but they will be listened to only if they communicate what they offer in clear terms that managers and employees can identify with.

They will need to help develop the Commitment needed, provide essential Communication and change the Culture in many organizations for this to become a reality. A new model is presented here, based on many man-years of research, executive management development and case study experience.
