QUALITY MANAGEMENT GURUS AND THEORIES
Quality Management resulted mainly from the work of the quality gurus
and their theories: the American gurus featured in the 1950's Japan:
quality gurus who developed and extended the early American quality
ideas and models: Kaoru Ishikawa, Genichi Taguchi, and Shigeo Shingo;
and the 1970-80's American Western gurus, notably Philip Crosby and
Tom Peters, who further extended the Quality Management concepts after
their theories, including the development and/or use of the Plan, Do,
