What qualifications do you see as necessary in the new job market?

The Quality profession has been continuously improving as the needs of its customers – the organizations its members belong to – have been changing. Quality professionals are more integrated into the operations of companies and have to be more versatile in their capabilities, applying whatever concepts and tools are needed to achieve the desired results. Gone are the days of a very narrowly focus, quality professional with a limited toolset. The more flexible capabilities a quality professional has, the more valuable he/she is to an organization and more opportunities exist for career growth.

What have you found to be most rewarding as a member of ASQ and why?

The interaction and networking with other quality professionals and the ability to give a little back to help others in their quality journey.
