In order for tqm to be successful, it is essential that most of the organization be _________.

1 answer:

5 0

There are several good answers to this question. I choose training and leadership support.

Training is absolutely necessary to understand the concepts of teamwork, using data to make decisions, understanding processes and variability, to name a few.

Leadership must be committed or there will not be any support. If your leader isn't on board, you will not be supported. You will start futile attempts that do not get implemented. This causes employees to become disenchanted and just do what they are told.

TQM doesn't get implemented very easily in a bureaucracy. All the concepts are supported by many documented success stories. But there is the "We are different, it won't work here" This denial create failure, not success.

If house A had a sale price of $70,000, monthly rent of $500, and a GRM of 140; House B had a sale price of $68,500, monthly ren

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$69,300

Explanation:

Given the following :

House A :

Sales price = $70,000

Monthly rent = $500

GRM = 140

House B :

Sales price = $68,500

Monthly rent = $490

GRM = 139.8

House C :

Sales price = $70,500

Monthly rent = $485

GRM = 139.6

The gross rent multiplier GRM is obtained as the proportion of the sale price of a property to it's monthly rent.

GRM = (Sales price / monthly rent)

If a property is rented for 495 and house A is the

most comparable, then

Sales price will be closest to:

GRM of House A × monthly rent of property

140 × $495 = $69,300
