Q-CULTURE

- A leadership course with a behavioral twist

Course description

There should be a strong presence of culture awareness in quality within every regulated company even in the absence of a quality professional’s presence.

An excellence-led quality culture (Q-Culture) is, of course, fundamental in making a product that’s safe and effective in order to improve patient lives. It is also important to have in order to standardize and maintain consistency and retain a prouder and more fulfilled team. If your organization always has that in mind, odds are you already have a strong quality culture.
But if not, then there is a chance that your organization has anchored a compliance-led Q-Culture? This can lead to silo thinking, reactionary type behavior. It puts quality professionals (QuPs) in the center of establishing and following a Q-Culture in which rest of the organization sits on the side-lines and tends to keep out of it.
In any organization, Q-Culture should always be SHARED RESPONSIBILITY. There is no doubt about that.

Leaders must not only establish this direction (i.e., creating the way, definitions, frameworks, and implementations), but also BE the direction (i.e., Courageous, Put their money where quality is, Trustworthy, Supporting, Empowering)
