Sadly Investors in Paperwork is still in being and is shortly to be joined by the latest bolleaux.....that of Investors in Excellence!!! EFQM is still with us so that we can get an ISO Award. Just what ISO we get for invading countries, winning wars (large and small), NEOs etc etc is not explained.
But I have seen the light. All of these innovations are created by the latest company out to make money, the British Quality Foundation IIRC in the case of IiE. So I am going to start a new 'Chartered' company, perhaps Military Business Excellence (MBE) or the Organisation of Business Excellence, then I am going to rate civilian companies and the civil service against 'military best practice' and charge loads of money for visiting them and assessing them!
I get rich, they get loads of Investment in Paperwork and a flashy new logo to hang on the walls of their offices. Win, win!!!
