Circular workflow includes four iterative steps of pdca

Description:

The image features a PowerPoint slide titled "Circular Workflow Includes Four Iterative Steps," representing the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, which is a repetitive four-stage model for continuous improvement in business process management. The slide shows a circular diagram divided into four colored segments, each representing a step in the PDCA cycle:

1. PLAN: 

"Create an Improvement Plan of Process" - typically involves identifying a problem and planning for change.

2. DO: 

"Execute the Improvement Plan" - where the plan is implemented on a small scale to test its effect.

3. CHECK: 

"Examine feedback and Adjust Improvement Plan" - involves evaluating the results of the test and identifying what was learned.

4. ACT: 

"Implement Improvement Plan into the System" - if the test is successful, the new process is implemented fully.

The central part of the diagram provides a space labeled "Text Here," suggesting that additional details can be inserted. Each step of the cycle has an associated icon that illustrates the action to be taken.
