The Best for Continuous Improvement.

I’ve worked in stand alone organisations that rely on information being passed up the hierarchy and some external to continuously improve.

I’ve worked in command and control organisations that rely on information being passed up from subordinate units whose members must overcome fear of criticism, embarrassment, or career disadvantage to feed consequences from the centralised decision making to continuously improve.

The best systems with continuous improvement are those where multiple independent organisations voluntarily sign up to be part of a larger association.

One of the member organisations innovates, notifies the association, which then checks and then shares that innovation with other members or in the form of better policies and procedures.
