Dr. Albert Tsang (Former Chairman, HKSQ) gave a welcome speech and introduced Prof. Yoshinori Iizuka to our members.
In the beginning, Prof. Iizuka mentioned if you learn Quality Management, you become Smarter!. He used Donut phenomenon to explain quality management neglecting quality. After that Prof. Iizuka described what were "Smart" people like. He was not talking about "Good memory", "Sharp" and "Excellent Understanding" because these abilities were inherited. The smartness was defined to have four abilities that were "Purpose-oriented", "Cause and effect", "Essence" and "Learning".
Prof. Iizuka also shared an interview with healthcare professional. Medical experts asked why is quality about customer satisfaction. Prof. Iizuka quoted Zen dialogue* to express the idea that any business (including medical practice) is meaningless unless someone recognizes it or unless the customer considers it good. (*Zen dialogue: In a forest with nobody in it, a tree fell with a noise. Can you say there was a noise? It means nothing can exist unless someone recognizes it.)
Finally, Prof. Iizuka concluded that Smartness factors were very closed to Quality approach. Moreover, TQM is an excellent management tool for organizational improvement and innovation.
