Quality Culture
An effective management system is at the heart of an effective organization and drives the business towards its strategic goals. The management system should therefore address the needs and expectations of its stakeholders, risks and opportunities, legal requirements and, not least, the organization’s values and culture. This course gives you an introduction to how you can create an organizational quality culture that sets the stage for change and sustainable success in your company.
This course introduces you to how you can use the DS/ISO 10010 guidance to help create an organizational quality culture that sets the stage for change and sustainable success in your company.
Because without an embedded quality culture, most organizations will find that improvements fail to materialize, change is put on hold and the management system and business grinds to a halt.
