Introduction to TQM
Total Quality Management as an idea began in Japan. Individuals like
Demming and Juran proposed through their writings that managing quality is not
restricted to only one department or function, but of the organization as a whole.
However, this concept is very expensive and difficult to implement and require a
complete organizational change. Some of the key elements of TQM include the
following:
1. Customer involvement: The Quality process should be customer focusedbecause it is them for which the company is operating. Therefore, the
focus of the company should be to bring in such products and services tha
are requires by the customers.
2. Develop long term supplier relationships: This means negotiating longterm deals with the supplier so that he would provide the products in
cheaper rate and would ensure quality. The company is also responsible to
implement TQM at its suppliers organization in order to bring in
maximum efficiency in the process.
3. Empowering employees: Employees are given autonomy and fullresponsibility to do their work in the dimensions set by the company. This
ensures maximum quality.

everything in the university from teaching methodologies to course content to
teachers and to students is of high quality. TQM has its implications in all the
departments of the Institute. For example Management Excellence Centre tries to
bring in the best of workshops for all its stakeholders, the academics department
tries to maintain quality in teaching content and methodology, administration
department tries to run all the processes smoothly etc. For the sake of this report,
we will be discussing Quality Enhancement Cell in detail and will then discuss
some of the processes of the Management Excellence Center of IoBM.

The Student Counseling System
The Student Counseling system is established in IoBM in place in order to
make sure that the students have the right mindset and approach to see things and
they are clear about their career paths and goals. Career counseling in more
important in a university than it is in any other level of schooling. This is because
by this time, students become more aware of the various career choices and
become very confused, if not helped at this time then they can completely get lost.
The career counselors at IoBM are highly qualified and friendly. They deal with
the following four areas of the counseling system:
Academic Counseling: This includes counseling and dealing with all the
problems related to courses selection mechanism, understanding institutes
policies, signing of undertakings and everything in the middle.
Career Counseling: This aspect of counseling includes internship
placements, job placements, providing avenues for interaction with the industry
leaders and everything in the middle.
Personal Issues: Students at this level are frequently seen in severe stress and
anxiety due to heavy course burden, managing with curricular and extracurricular
activities and stress about getting a good job after graduation. Moreover, this
aspect of counseling also deals with domestic issues and problems.
Student Services: These include all other counseling services that the above
four dont cover like learning, low CGPA, Blocked ID, issues with registration,
semester break, endowment funds and scholarships.

Training Need Assessment Leadership Management Excellence (LME)
Program offers Customized Training & Need Assessment Services.
MECs LME program intends to provide a better understanding of the
actual and perceived training and support needs of the organization by employing
a need assessment tool specifically designed for each client. The comprehensive
and effective need analysis would translate the organizational goals into a reality,
determine whether training is needed and, if needed, specify what that training
should accomplish, along with gathering information about present practices and
comparing these practices with the desired way of doing business. This will help
the MEC team to develop customized trainings for the concerned organization
and its employees using the extensive resource pool available to MEC.

Conclusion
IoBM is top notch business school of the country and the graduates of this
business school then go on to join all the best national and multinational
companies that are in operations in Pakistan and in different parts of the world.

changes in the field. However, it needs to incorporate the above mentioned
recommendations in order to capitalize completely on the potential of its quality
