Joseph M. Juran 死去(斷續之追念之三)

Joseph M. Juran 死去(斷續之追念之三)

我所知道的Juran 的慈善相關關事業

補充前兩篇:多年前我也用英文寫過 Pareto Rule

Pareto Distribution:Deming, Juran and Simon’s Rule and Worlds of ...

Wikipedia Joseph. M. Juran 條目,稱他也是位philanthropist,即「慈善家」(日文採「博愛家」)。或許讀者可以從他的回憶錄*,稍微了解他如何處置80年代品質運動中所賺到的錢(主要賣『品質改善』教學錄影帶系列產品,包括''Quality Control Handbook'等書,以及其顧問公司的股票。這方面細節我也不清楚,譬如說某本合著教科書**的版權,過去十來年的變化頗大)。

Juran的慈善相關關事業以Juran Foundation 為主,這基金會是他在1986成立的,並不是紐約時報19981115 CLAUDIA H. DEUTSCH撰文TALKING QUALITY WITH -- JOSEPH M. JURAN; The Guru of Doing It Right Still Sees Much Work to Do 中所說的,是從1979年就有了。

Juran Foundation 1990年代資助出版兩本書,讓我印象深刻:

Quality Wars: The Triumphs and Defeats of American Business by Jeremy Main.( Free Press,1994 { 美國品質大戰三百回合})-

J. M. Juran (editor) A History of Managing for Quality (Quality Press, 1994,,)

不過,The Juran Foundation 1998就遷到他的母校: the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota,成立The Joseph M Juran Center for Leadership in Quality 我查一下,它的文獻資料庫上次更新時間為Database last updated: 05/31/2007 09:37 PM
