Episode Four: What can you learn from a quality management pilot?

What can a small-scale pilot teach you before rolling out a new quality standard across an organization? In this episode of Think Headlight, Not Spotlight, Hadiya Nuriddin shares why quality management is best introduced in manageable phases instead of all at once. She discusses how pilots can reveal which guidelines are realistic, where teams may push back, and what needs refining before expanding the approach. Explore ways to pilot by line of business or learning modality, plan for exceptions, and gradually embed guidelines into everyday workflows. Hadiya also explains why quality management is an ongoing commitment and how clear standards can help teams move beyond subjective reviews.
