BENCHMARKING FOR BEST PRACTICESThis book was a forerunner in the early 1990's as a blueprint for how to make innovation and breakthrough performance improvements. It was well received by improvement practioners around the world and was translated into five languages and used frequently in the USA, United Kingdom, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
