Paul Borawski: The Future of Quality -- and the World
The world is changing. And quality professionals need to change right along with it.
Join ASQ's Executive Director and Chief Strategic officer as he explores the key forces that will shape quality, and how to stay on top of them. Watch or listen now, or download audio or video for later.
Technology has minimized or eliminated boundaries that used to define the limits of business and communication. The population is getting older: Most of us will be 60 or more by 2025. There's a new spirit of social responsibility in the air, but at the same time we see threats ahead from environmental damage and continued increases in resource consumption.
And quality is changing too. Those who want to lead the way in the world of quality are going to need new sets of knowledge and skills, and greater flexibility than ever before.
Are you scared? Or are you excited and hopeful?
