[manIA] Knowledge (Part 2) - an enterprise-wide methodology « manIA: I have always considered this a small tragedy as, in my opinion, Quality Circles are not just a good way of solving problems leading to greater efficiencies etc. I also saw them as a way of empowering staff.  They allowed staff to have their say, to contribute and to use their brains.  I have always been amazed at the depth and breadth of knowedge that exists within some teams and have often been absolutely frustrated at senior managers employing consultants at exorbitant fees when I knew that we already had that expertise on tap just down the corridor at virtually zero cost.
