Quality Manual best approach
During our Stage 1 document review, our auditor said that we should consider drastically reducing the Quality Manual, which I agree with. What is the minimum size and scope that a QMS Manual should look like? For example, why should anyone document in the manual the actual standard? I have one I have put weeks into, that is blended between ISO:9001 / AS9100 / IATF16949 however it does reek of a regurgitation of the standards. What is the best simple approach?

Employee motivation and empowerment
Our company is struggling in how to meet the IATF requirement 7.3.2. Our procedure was vague at first and then it was rewritten to clarify what type of evidence would be provided to show that we are meeting the intent of this requirement and was still shot down by our auditor at our follow-up surveillance audit to close out some findings. Without placing a lot of garbage in our procedure that we know won't be done, how do we go about being practical in meeting this particular requirement? Could you provide examples of what other companies are doing? Are other companies struggling with being compliant with this clause of the standard?
