How does this model drive change?
▲ It
addresses the question posed at the first ISO
audit:
How do you know you are providing what the users require?
▲ It
provides data that I can work with
▲ It views the problem in such a way that corrective
action can be taken
▲ It embraces the 8 principles of ISO 9001

What I learnt in the process
▲ Managing
change is central to performance
improvement
▲ Sustaining change means having to accept
discomfort
▲ ISO 9001 where properly applied is a
diagnostic tool that points to lapses in quality
▲ ISO 9001 addresses failure in a positive way
▲ When I align BDH library management
closely with the enterprise strategy I take my
place on the team.

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time
