Online "Leveraging Strategy for
ISO 9001 Real Results"
(Only $189.95!)
This course is the ideal course for employees, managers, and executives who want to upgrade the value of themselves to their company and make a real difference by gaining knowledge and methodology which helps to increase revenue, reduce cost, increase market share, and ultimately make any company more competitive and successful.  Experts call this better than an MBA in Strategy in a box because it is practical, not theoretical, concise, powerful, and has been tested in real the real world at some of the worlds largest companies and banks to increase competitiveness.  This methodology is not available in any book or publication and is integrated with ISO 9001.  It focuses on putting in place the right strategy/infrastructure/enablers (capabilities, organization, processes, technology, and metrics) as an integrated feed to the ISO 9001 approach for improving consistency of implementation of the right capabilities.  Most companies make mistakes by putting the wrong infrastructure/enablers as a feed into ISO 9001 and then the wrong organization, processes, technologies, and metrics get consistently implemented company-wide in a high quality way.  This course turns ISO 9001 on its head and focuses on using a strategic approach to get Real Results from an ISO 9001 Implementation.
