E104: How Process Improvement Can Help Address Climate Change with David Saunders
Update: 2023-08-24
Description
In this episode, I speak with David Saunders, who is a retired Quality consultant and has focused his next career on using improvement tools to reduce the impact of climate change. He is a Certified Climate Change Professional (CC-P) through the Association of Climate Change Officers (ACCO), and volunteers with the Chesapeake Climate Action Network.He shares his journey on how he has dedicated his life to using his quality skills to tackle one of our biggest challenges, climate change. He also encourages others in quality and process improvement to get educated and more engaged in climate change work before other less experienced groups take over this effort. But it’s not just David who’s seeing this trend. In a 2023 survey by ASQ, “44% of respondents indicate that their organizations will be inceasing the involvement of quality professionals in ESG (environment, social and governance) initiatives in the next 3 years.”He spent 38 years as a quality professional with ARBOR/ResCare. He is a graduate of Hobart College in Geneva, NY, and received a master’s degree from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. He is a co-author of the book, Four Days With Dr. Deming.You can watch the video below, or visit https://youtu.be/-yRLtPERiPk
