Quality for Life Initiative

ASQ Announces Quality for Life Initiative.

Members Encouraged to Submit Stories of How Their Quality Skills Impact Lives

Milwaukee, Wis., October 7, 2008 – Quality is more than a profession. For many, quality is a skill that can be used to serve a higher purpose: to improve the lives of others. To recognize these individuals and countless others in the quality community for their contributions, the American Society for Quality (ASQ) has developed a Quality for Life program. As part of the new initiative, ASQ members are encouraged to submit stories detailing their community involvement to qualityforlife@asq.org.

“Quality for Life extends beyond the office, lab or plant floor; it’s encompassed in everyday life,” said Roberto Saco, president of ASQ. “This initiative is designed to share the stories of quality professionals who use the passion, commitment and skills they use in the workplace and apply them to volunteer efforts.”
