How to be strategic about quality
There were many excellent takeaways in a recent episode of Statistically Speaking focused on quality, featuring Martha Gardner, Chief Engineer of Quality at GE Aviation; Wende Wilson, Lead Data Scientist of Schweizer Engineering Laboratories; and Bernard Goguelet, Senior Consultant at Deloitte. Martha’s opening plenary on Becoming a Strategic Statistician was brilliant, setting the stage for the engaging discussion that followed.
Though the topic for the event was quality, the strategic perspective on statistical problem solving was the overriding theme.
These quality leaders recognize that quality is a strategic pursuit; when it’s done well, it can affect the entire organization because it requires quality data, processes, technology, and most critically, people, to create value.
Other tips and advice included the importance of asking the right question, effective ways to share results, and ways to persuade others to upskill so they can make the scientific discoveries they love even faster.
