Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" id="smr570-abs-0002"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>It is well‐known that process improvement change requires "tools‐processes‐people."

The increasing focus on people is reflected in many change models; some are discussed in this paper. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" id="smr570-blkfxd-0001" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1xrmbnzv" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
