“THE AUTHOR, KORAY YITMEN SHOWS THE WAY AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ THIS BOOK!” G. KONGO
“Quality isn’t tested, it’s built” This expression has been around for decades, but many organizations today are either unaware of its truth, or try to ignore it. The author reminds us that quality isn’t something added at the end of product creation, like spreading icing on a cake; it has to be part of the creation process from the very beginning. Organizations that build quality products right from the start can devote their resources to innovating for their next opportunities. Those who build poor-quality products have to use their resources to respond to unhappy customers and repair faulty products. Although the correct choice seems obvious, many still don’t understand it.
