- Evaluate the two fast-food restaurants in terms of the "Seven QC tools" discussed in Chapter 15. Determine the top three QC tools that tend to be most valuable to business owners. Explain your rationale.
Discussion 2 - "Lean Operating Systems" Please respond to the following:
- Compare and contrast the lean service system found within Southwest Airlines to a full-service airline such as United Airlines, British Airways, and other large carriers in terms of cabin service, boarding process, baggage handling, and service encounters.

Discussion 3 - Community relations are a large part of business outreach and growing a brand. If you've been to a community event such as a neighborhood festival, charity event, or 5K race, you've seen sponsorship banners and ads. Likewise, you might have seen ads from local businesses in the program at a school concert or other children's event.
Find a business outreach event in YOUR LOCAL community. What business(es) is sponsoring the event? What is the purpose of the event? How do you think this event brings your community together?
