Summary:During the last hundred years, only six management ideas have attained universal acclaim. Which ideas are these and why have they become so popular? Is a good idea sufficient in itself, or does it have to be carefully designed, marketed and launched like any other commercial product or service? Of the thousands of management writers and consultants who have advised corporations throughout the century, only a handful have entered management's hall of fame.

Edwards Deming contribute to the impact of their ideas on the management world?
