by Verapong Paditporn and Divya Verma
Thailand's Prime Minister has urged his country's industrialists to improve productivity and quality amid increasingly tough global competition. This is a tough challenge for any company. The first solution that comes to mind -- investing in new technology and machinery -- is only open to financially strong firms. A better solution is to harness a company's human potential.
Verapong Paditporn was a Partner of Gallup in Bangkok, Thailand.
