I'm feeling good about Kaizen. After all, it's the 'continuous improvement' method that's all the rage in the business world these days. Time to show off my management expertise!

Haha, Kaizen for sure! I bet the exam designers are hoping to catch some candidates with the 'Six Sigma' option, but us savvy test-takers know better.

Quality Circles? Really? This question is too easy. The key details about participation and the Board of Directors involvement clearly point to Kaizen as the correct answer.

Yes, Quality Circles wouldn't involve the entire Board of Directors like Kaizen does.

I'm going to go with Six Sigma on this one. The goal of eliminating defects and the emphasis on data-driven decision-making seem to fit the description.

Looks like Organization X has embraced the principles of Total Quality Management (TQM). The focus on preventing errors, involving all stakeholders, and top-level commitment are hallmarks of this approach.
