If you would examine great company’s reports, you could see that quality management is an increasingly important discipline to achieve great results. It concerns of many successful companies of all sizes, such as 3M, for example. 3M uses Six Sigma technology and they have also achieved record financial results during using this.
Many of this companies somehow or other use mind mapping to manage quality initiatives. With its simple, relational structure, mind maps are used to brainstorm ideas, map out processes, identify root causes, and chart steps for quality improvement.
The main advantage is that mind mapping provides a simple way for everyone to make sense of the complex quality dynamics. When you see the big picture of complex organizational processes, it’s easier to evaluate the steps for improvement and optimize the details. This results in the overall quality of a business becoming greater than just the sum of its parts. Also, you can use mind mapping to support Six Sigma and other documenting processes. |
