WHAT WE MEAN BY ‘HIGH PERFORMING BOARD’
The concept of high-performing teams was pioneered in the 1950s by Tavistock thinkers who understood that to be truly ‘high-performing’ a team must be aware of not only what it is achieving but also, crucially, how it is working together.

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE PQASSO QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Quality is about trying to do better: better in both the services the organisation offers and in the way the organisation runs
Quality management system Organisations need to manage quality in a comprehensive and systematic way. This process of formal management is called a ‘quality management system’ – often shortened to ‘quality system’
