As a registered member of SearchSoftwareQuality.com, you're entitled to a complimentary copy of Section 5 of Inherent Quality Simplicity written by Ron Richard and self-published by the author. "The Evolution" projects a bright future for IT, for the people who work in IT, for the consumers and for the technology itself. The author proposes a quality movement, offering current examples of progress in quality and a list of current hindrances. Ideally, quality becomes a self-fulfilling cycle as more strive for it.



Inherent Quality Simplicity

Book description:

This unique book teaches simple and powerful ways to make quality an inherent element in IT -- and beyond. One may begin by building upon quality-oriented, ethical and socially responsible movements already in effect. "Inherent Quality Advocates" or "Inherent Quality Solutions Architects" are people who can set these positive wheels in motion. Becoming an IQA or an IQSA isn't difficult, explains author Ron Richard.

This book does not contain a table of contents. Readers instead progressively discover sections. For your convenience the sections are: I) The Book, II) The Mindset, III) The Beauty, IV) The Architect, V) The Evolution, VI) The Results, VII) The Revelation.

Inherent Quality Simplicity is for executives, professionals and all who produce, help create, purchase and see that their quality of life is touched, improved or impacted by software, technology and information. Grasp the essence. Find your purpose.
