Weekly Topic for the Quality Team (10.31–11.06): How to Get Leaders to Pay Attention to Quality
Thread Content
This post was last edited by llyy0327 on 2011-10-31 at 13:34. How can one win the favor of leaders when working in quality control? We can identify the problems and reflect on them, but there is little enthusiasm or determination to solve them. The managers are always busy with various tasks, and only when quality accidents or issues arise do they think to call in those responsible for quality control to discuss the situation. I would like to ask if anyone has any better methods in practice to encourage managers to pay more attention to quality. I once thought about using “money” as a means to convey this idea, of calculating and measuring quality management and inspection activities in terms of financial amounts, but I couldn’t figure out how to express it, or what indicators to use The actual costs of quality loss and quality improvement are always inaccurate in financial accounting. In my confusion, I hope to see the insightful opinions of all the experts here. . . . . . . . . . . .
Firstly, companies should have an awareness and concept of quality, which is also essential for their growth. If some small businesses only focus on immediate profits, they might neglect quality in the pursuit of economic gains. Secondly, as the person in charge of the quality department, it is necessary to reinforce the concept of quality and raise this awareness, so that the company gives importance to quality. This process is a long and arduous one~~
First, the relationship between prices is established, along with relevant data. By taking into account the analysis capabilities, technological level, and management methods of one’s own company, it is possible to determine what level of performance can be achieved, and thus how much economic benefit can be obtained; this data is used to help managers recognize the importance of quality
This should be very effective; it shows leaders the relationship between quality and benefits – only when benefits are involved will leaders pay attention!
Statistical data on the impact of poor quality on products are compiled into reports and submitted to management. At the same time, I discuss with management how product quality can be controlled and what positive outcomes can result from high quality.
I don’t think this is right; in a legitimate company, any sensible manager will pay attention to quality Quality directly affects the selling price and sales volume of a product. If the quality has always been satisfactory, sales are good, and the management lacks creativity, then as long as the benefits that can be achieved through quality improvements can be expressed in terms of specific data, the management will likely focus on those benefits
Reply to 6# xunyuan119: It’s more the case with small businesses that prioritize profits above everything else. Many company leaders do not really pay attention to quality, ignoring the achievements made in quality management, and as a result they gradually lose their enthusiasm for quality management and improvement. Must many quality managers feel helpless?
It is necessary to tally the losses caused by quality issues, list and analyze the underlying reasons and corresponding solutions, so as to make leaders aware of the consequences of neglecting quality and enhance their understanding of quality management.
Reply to 7# yuanyongan: Small businesses do indeed have such problems, which is why the quality of products available on the market is getting worse and worse! Just do your job well; if that’s not possible, then find another organization where you have more room to develop!
Since so many companies don’t pay any attention to quality, what can you do by changing? This meeting is called to bring together quality managers and quality inspectors to discuss strategies, so as to improve quality work – for the benefit of others as well as for ourselves!
Reply to 10# yuanyongan: Larger companies do pay attention to this issue. Wish you success! ! Discuss a good plan!
