		<description>Thanks Loris for your input and sharing your experience.  I have also used these priciples based on need &amp; situation and I am happy to say that I got very good results.  I re-read these 14 points today and began to reflect how have I utilized them.  Thanks again and keep doing great work.</description>

		<description>I am using this as part of QA lessons, unfortunately over the years I have found that way too many companies use QA as method of advertising they are compliant to something or other, but now wholeheartedly believe this. The TPS system, for years even in my early career I used some of these 14 commandments unbeknown to me because I believe in empowering people. I have been vilified in Italy for giving &quot;simple ordinary workers&quot; power of decision. And this is a problem way a very good system in some management environment will never work.  In Italy you have to change some people mind set before you go anywhere near using this system.
Thank you for your attention.</description>

		<description>I work for an NGO and is advising governmental agencies on the implementation of a computer system.  In such an environment where project stakeholders are in different departments and not part of the Steering Committee, the project kick off meeting is essential to get the buyin from the other stakeholders - the rest of the project team meets usually regularly so one can maintain the energy needed to get things done.  I&#039;ve followed the tips and can say that it was most certainly very helpful Virk.</description>
