1 Define clear quality goals and criteria

The first step to improving quality is to define what quality means for your team and your outputs. You need to establish clear, measurable, and realistic quality goals and criteria that align with your organization's vision, mission, and values. You also need to communicate these goals and criteria to your team and make sure that everyone understands them and agrees with them. By doing this, you will create a shared vision of quality and a common language for evaluating your work.

One key to this is the signed duties and responsibilities. When a team member is informed, supported, and encouraged the dynamic of what they must do is changed into what we can do together. With documentation, clearly identifying above and below par team members becomes much easier and much less confrontational.

2 Implement quality control and assurance processes

The next step is to implement quality control and assurance processes that will help you monitor, measure, and improve your work. Quality control is the process of checking and testing your outputs to ensure that they meet the quality criteria and standards. Quality assurance is the process of reviewing and improving your processes and methods to prevent errors and defects. You can use various tools and techniques for quality control and assurance, such as checklists, audits, inspections, feedback, reviews, and root cause analysis. You should also document your processes and results for future reference and improvement.

3 Foster a quality culture and mindset

The third step is to foster a quality culture and mindset in your team. This means that you need to create an environment where quality is valued, recognized, and rewarded. You can do this by setting an example of quality leadership, providing regular training and coaching, encouraging collaboration and innovation, giving constructive feedback and recognition, and involving your team in quality improvement initiatives. You should also promote a culture of learning from mistakes, rather than blaming or punishing. By doing this, you will motivate your team to strive for excellence and continuous improvement.

4 Apply the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle

The fourth step is to apply the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle, which is a simple but effective framework for quality improvement. The cycle consists of four phases: plan, do, check, and act. In the plan phase, you identify the quality problem or opportunity, analyze the root causes, and develop a solution or action plan. In the do phase, you implement the solution or action plan and collect data on the results. In the check phase, you compare the results with the expected outcomes and evaluate the effectiveness of the solution or action plan. In the act phase, you standardize the successful solution or action plan or modify it if needed. You then repeat the cycle until you achieve your quality goals.

PDCA processes only work with effective and accurate communication and diligent leadership in the plan segment. The remaining steps in the process are either on-target or not based on the preparation and communication provided during planning.

5 Seek feedback and suggestions

The fifth step is to seek feedback and suggestions from your customers, stakeholders, and team members on the quality of your work and performance. Feedback is essential for quality improvement, as it helps you identify the strengths and weaknesses of your work, the gaps and opportunities for improvement, and the expectations and satisfaction of your customers and stakeholders. You should solicit feedback regularly and systematically, using various methods such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, or online platforms. You should also listen to feedback attentively, acknowledge it respectfully, and act on it promptly.

6 Celebrate quality achievements

The last step is to celebrate quality achievements with your team. Celebrating quality achievements is a way of recognizing and rewarding your team's efforts and accomplishments, as well as reinforcing the importance and value of quality. You can celebrate quality achievements by sharing success stories, highlighting best practices, giving praise and appreciation, offering incentives or rewards, or organizing fun and social events. You should also celebrate quality achievements with your customers and stakeholders, by thanking them for their feedback and support, delivering exceptional service, or providing added value or benefits. By doing this, you will boost your team's morale, confidence, and loyalty, as well as strengthen your customer and stakeholder relationships.
