Wazzup Pilipinas!
It is in a forum where a lot of us find our passion. For me it is a life-changing event because we get to hear about the exciting things that people around the country, or the world, are doing. I find it an enriching event where there are many lessons to be learned. With all the rapid changes taking place around the world, I have often felt extremely overwhelmed. Attending similar events like a forum is my lifeline. I am grateful to be able to return home with wonderful ideas to improve my personal strategies at both my home and organization.
It is where we can also build connections. I meet people there who, like me years ago, are just starting out on their improvement journeys. These people inspire us and calls us to action with their passion and insight. It's great to be around so many like-minded individuals striving to create a better world. By collaborating with others, we can create new ideas to solve the new challenges brought about by a rapidly changing world.
In the networking sessions, I’ve found people who share their successes and failures as they work to improve their craft so invigorating. At the 26th National Quality Forum (NQF), an annual gathering of quality management professionals organized by the Philippine Society for Quality, Inc (PSQ), a non-stock, non-profit organization that laid down the groundwork for setting up a quality organization that can serve as a catalyst for action in the application for quality management, we become part of a worldwide movement. That feeling of belonging and being part of something global should never leave us and should continue to stay as long as we aim for the best.
