Towards a global cyber institute – Part
1.
By Allan J. Sayle, President Allan Sayle
Associates
If done properly, setting up a global institute based in
cyberspace will propel forward the quality profession and provide a superior
service than the BAMs. Better value for money for members, employers and
clients global reach and participation. It can offer truly international
credentials and credibility for the members. Only a few key pieces remain
to be put in place and it could be running in a matter of weeks.
It is the way to go. And the time has come to do it.

Allan J. Sayle has published numerous articles and
delivered major speeches around the world in his 35 years experience.
His book "Management Audits", ISBN 0951173901, now in its
3rd edition was first written in 1978 and is acknowledged as the "classic"
and "definitive" text on that subject. Sayle is also acknowledged
as the originator of the "Process Approach" (or "Task
Element" approach) to auditing and quality programs, a method
he developed in the early 1970s and which is now the de facto approach
used around the world: the process approach is now at the heart of
ISO 9001:2000. He is a pioneer of value-added audits. Allan Sayle's
seminal work in Quality Management has influenced every practising
quality professional. More information is available at his web site
