World Quality Week – 8 to 12 November 2021

World Quality Week, the CQI’s flagship brand awareness campaign, celebrates the quality management profession. This year, from 8-12 November, our focus will be on quality’s role in sustainability and its environmental, social and governance (ESG) impact. As the chair of the Birmingham branch, Temple QMS are very pleased to be supporting it.

ESG factors are rapidly taking priority on business agendas and there’s a growing awareness of how much these factors affect both decision-making and stakeholder value. ESG includes:

• Government policy
• Regulation
• Customer and consumer attitudes
• Investor attitudes and requirements
• Pressure group activity and influence

Making business and society better

So what does this all mean? Sustainability can’t just be an area that you and your organisation consider. You need to commit to building it into your company culture because it’s here to stay. And, if sustainability hasn’t already become an essential part of your business operations, your competitive advantage and your reputation, it will.

For the CQI, the concept of improving our products, people and planet is in line with our Royal Charter and our mission to champion quality management for the benefit of society. So we encourage you – whether you’re a CQI/IRCA member or a professional working in quality management – to join us in promoting World Quality Week. This is a great opportunity to support your organisation not only to think about but to act on sustainability.
