Vinkenburg (2006), Kemenade (2010)

Who works from the control paradigm sees the world from an distance and wants to

leave one’s own mark on it, with doability as ambition.

Who works from the commitment paradigm

wants to contribute to a better world and wants to give a say to people in what is better, with sustainability as ambition.

Vinkenburg (2006)

The commitment paradigm

• Shiba & Walden (2006)

“We see an increasing need for: (1) shared learning and

(2) integration with a variety of extra-business societal concerns as a requirement to establish

breakthrough. The step from incremental improvement to breakthrough

can be inhibited by arrogance (what is already being made and sold is what

customers will always want). To break this barrier involves re-looking at the fundamental objectives of the business

and seeking new societal values beyond current business interests”.

Kemenade, (2010)

1. Control2. Continuous improvement

3. Commitment4. Breakthrough

Some of the consequences

– Separate control from continuous improvement and commitment;

– Different objects, definitions and skills for quality experts are needed.

– More soft skills will be required in Continuous improvement and commitment paradigms.
