The Juran Institute recently released its educational Quality Minutes series on DVD and by subscription. The series is made up of 98 case stories that illustrate and reinforce how performance improvements helped organizations break through to success. Covering six wide-ranging libraries of interest, each video segment dramatizes the planning, implementation and results of breakthrough concepts.

Each real-world example introduces a thoughtful examination of proven processes and results. They can be used for opening meetings, maintaining continuity during breaks in large or small conferences, conducting project team reviews, steering teams, seminars and business retreats.

Subjects include improvement and cost-reduction; planning and meeting customer needs; tools, measures and process improvement; benchmarking; competition and trends; teams, strategy and definitions; health care and government. Each volume is supplemented with written materials.
