Abstract: The cell organization is represented by the working group and not the individual, groups that are a major feature of life organization. Quality circles were designed as tools for building team spirit in Japanese companies as a tool to enhance group cohesion and the training of employees. The essential characteristic of human behavior and organizational performance is given by the working group and the influence on group members, so members of the group leader should use in order to achieve a high level of performance at work and improving organizational effectiveness. Division by function minimizes teamwork, whose role in implementing TQM is essential, given that many organizations are dominated by maintaining the traditional system are not promoting interactive communication between employees.
