Japan suffered a huge setback after World War 2. The bombing of two of its cities had destroyed Japan's industries. Losing the war was not only a military loss, it was also a great financial loss for Japan. 

In the wake of such circumstances, Dr. Edward Deming, an expert on business management helped rebuild Japan's fallen industries. He advocates that the root cause of all crisis can be traced back to the lack of good leadership. 

A machine can fail due to various reasons but to prevent it from failure the leader must take concrete steps in maintenance and adopt TPM methods. Hence, the leadership can directly be held responsible for the way an organization is maintained so it is their job to take measures for prevention of accidents and equipment failures. They must also promote safety, orderliness and harmony among employees for the organization to flourish and its productivity and efficiency to rise..
