Course Overview
The cost of poor quality in productivity reporting is rarely visible in any single budget line. Variation in this strand of quality and productivity management is the enemy; averages conceal it. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in the quality and productivity management capability, not around theory headings. Comparative studies of productivity reporting across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in this part of quality and productivity management before they become incidents. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in the quality and productivity management discipline rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with productivity reporting. Improvement in the wider quality and productivity management agenda stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this area of quality and productivity management survives a hostile question.
