We have a lot of great content that can be found in our community including:

Primers on various HD&L BOK topics
Quarterly newsletters with short articles and news from around the division as well as ASQ
Recorded webinars on a variety of HD&L BOK topics both in video and presentation forms
A competency framework for quality professionals and leaders

If you are new to the community, we encourage you to check out our upcoming events and start interacting with other members through our discussion board.

Our True North Roadmap

True North is an established reference point to help anyone navigate in any direction, to any destination. It is the basis of the compass and, as the North Star, is what anchors navigational tools. As proponents of Human Development and Leadership, we are each responsible for defining true north for ourselves and teaching others the best ways to use it for their own development and leadership. In his book True North, Bill George defines True North as the internal compass that guides you successfully through life. It represents who you are as a human being at your deepest level. Let our community be your partner in defining your True North; your fixed point in a spinning world.
