This year, ASQ celebrates 65 years of growth and we work today to get ready for the next 65 years in a very different world. Headquartered here in Milwaukee, we support members down the block and around the world through multiple facets of our business operations.
In addition to a strong presence in Manufacturing, ASQ is a champion of Quality in Government, Service, HealthCare, Education (example NQEC in early November) and other industry sectors. We have seen that the practice of quality and continuous improvement can change individuals, organizations and the world by creating sustainable programs that can leave the world a better place.
Examples are everywhere….. One in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel yesterday Sunday October 23, 2011 ..”Measuring quality improves doctors’ care, study finds” (Other Examples)
(Note: Based on the audience and setting, presenters should read full Vision statement, affirming that this is the long-term Vision, and everyday focus, of the Society, as affirmed by the Board of Directors annually)
Then—select portions of the Vision for emphasis.
For instance, to emphasize the breadth, depth and inclusivity of ASQ’s reach and members’ presense, note the phrase “community for everyone seeking…”
Or, to emphasize ASQ’s roles and responsibilities as the global champion of the Quality Movement, and the opportunities emphasized by our members and their employers, note “making quality a global priority…”
(Not necessarily scripted; notes to review, use, and edit freely… - from Mark O. 6/28/12)
