Lecture 5 explores the birth of the quality movement (TQM) with the Japanese case. Researchers studied the quality control movement in Japan and found that organizational culture is decisive. The key findings are empowering the employees, flattening the hierarchy, holding accountability to customers, building data-based information, as well as granting autonomy to teams. In this lecture we learn that from the cultural frame, there are many strategies the leaders can apply to promote the organizational learning and productivity.
