“…Most are one-shot affairs; definitions of TQM are not standardized; and conventional instruments appear to generate considerable reporting bias (Cole, 1999: 22;Strang & Macy, 2001: 150). Easton and Jarrell's (1998) strategy of generating an organizational narrative addresses many of these issues, but to our knowledge it has not been applied to TQM for the period under investigation. 40 percent in 1999 (Rigby, 2001).…”

“…On the supply side, the period was dominated by "gurus" like Crosby, Deming, and Juran, as well as by small, specialized consultancies like Harrington, Hurd & Rieker (the first two principals were presidents of the American Society for Quality Control, the third a leading quality circle consultant). 19 This potent combination helped produce customized programs and substantial performance gains (Easton & Jarrell, 1998;Westphal et al, 1997), although the lack of media attention meant that TQM diffused slowly through social networks. In institutional terms, this era matches well with the period of rational adoption and structural contingency that Tolbert and Zucker (1983) found in their classic analysis of civil service reform.…”

“…Easton and Jarrel [6] support the above argument with the findings of their research into 108 early adopters of TQM, indicating that performance, measured by both accounting variables and stock returns, improved by using TQM. Hendricks and Singhal [9] conducted a study on 600 quality award winners who provided evidence of good financial results from implementing TQM effectively.…”

“…Instead, there is often compelling evidence suggesting that, were the innovation in question appropriately adopted and implemented, the organization would benefit significantly. For example, while numerous studies find that the dedicated use of TQM improves quality, productivity, and overall competitiveness (Easton and Jarrell 1998, Hendricks and Singhal 1996, Barron and Paulson Gjerde 1996, a recent survey found that among US managers TQM is "…deader than a pet rock" (Byrne 1997). The situation is similar for a wide range of other innovations (Klein and Sorra 1996).…”
