ASQ Phoenix Section Message from the Chair December 2025
Greetings All -
Thanks to all who attended the November Program “Celebrate World Quality Month“ with Jennifer Stepniowski - an ASQ Fellow with nearly three decades of experience providing quality solutions to a number of industries. We had 56 attending the Program with the Presentation receiving positive feedback. This and past Program recordings can be found in the “Library” on the Phoenix Section page of myASQ.
