The 2013 Total Quality Management Conference took place in the Student Activity Center on March 21st. Many people attended with the hope of improving organizations and the workplace environment. In order to find the direction of improvement, speaker from Yuan Ze University, Paul C.S Hsu, also known as the “Father of Taiwanese Management” came to give a lecture and share his tremendous experience. The focus of his experience was cultivating the mental capacity of professional personnel. In attendance was faculty and officials of every level as they came to learn and utilize the experience of Paul C.S Hsu.

The conference began with President Flora Chia-I Chang giving a speech recognizing all of the junior colleges that received the Total Quality Management award over the years. She stated, “Even though it is a precious achievement that Tamkang University has been awarded with, it is essential that we continue to improve and maintain the spirit of excellence.” Afterwards President Chang made suggestions that could be the next step in the development of TKU. She also expressed her appreciation to all of the staff that have made the success of TKU possible. Afterwards the BS 10012 Certification (Personal Information Management System Certification) was received by President Chang on behalf of Tamkang University. This project of protecting personal information had begun on October 1st, 2012 and entailed the regulated protection of gathering, managing and utilizing data.

Speaker Paul C. S. Hsu stated, “In a diverse environment the innovations and strategies of a university will flourish.” He elaborated by explaining that stiff or strict regulations can hinder university innovation and result in the lack of the university’s overall development. He stated that the only way to avoid such restriction of growth is to continue to have diversified methods and regulations. Paul C. S. Hsu stated, “Of course it is inescapable that the root of all development is hard work and responsibility. So the source of innovation no matter how flexible the methods must always be diligence. However a university is a diverse ecosystem that includes organizations, philosophy, heritage, art, mathematics, nature, society, engineering, law, accounting, and so on. With such a diverse ecosystem, diverse methods, regulations and development must be emphasized.”
