Deming's principle that addresses "departments" is "Break down barriers between departments." This principle indicates that departments should be open to the smooth flow of ideas and resources from department to department, rather than closely controlling information and resources. The principle also highlights the importance of teamwork and collaboration, as departments cannot be solely responsible for their own success and must work together for the overall success of the organization.
