Guerilla Tactics for Quality Leadership

By Steve Gompetz, QRxPartners

The term “guerilla tactics” likely conjures images of ragtag armed fighters skulking about the jungle to ambush a better outfitted target. A better definition in the context of changing your organization’s culture around quality, is that of a member of a small independent group taking part in activities performed in an impromptu way, often without authorization. In business we would more typically refer to such people as mavericks, leaders, change agents, or even loose-cannons, heretics, or disrupters. Regardless of which of those labels you consider positive or negative, the common theme is that they are people with strong convictions who persist and succeed in driving change.


At the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

·Implement new quality methods and concepts without conflict

·Obtain the data needed to drive analysis and decision making efficiently and without bias

·Create documentation that will ensure better comprehension and compliance

·Apply the "7 habits of highly effective quality leaders"
