The CQI
• 2019 Centenary Year - Our Aims
• To lead a new, modern Quality profession
• To have repositioned The CQI as the Global thought leader
• To have grown a global membership community
• To influence beyond the traditional boundaries of the profession
• To have become an excellent organisation
The CQI
Our Problem…
• CQI Membership is flat-lining at around 9,700, and CQI Qualifications are flat-lining with around 300
new student enrolments a year.
• Our Brand - The traditional Quality Professional that we represent is not valued by employers.
• Our Products - Given the above, we are unable to adequately define the professional standards for
‘Quality Professionals’ or support development through our learning and knowledge services.
• Our Customers Focus - We have focussed on selling CQI membership, qualifications and training
‘bottom up’ to the ‘Quality Manager’ and not focussed enough on understanding and meeting
comprehensively the requirements of employers or senior quality professionals
• Our Pace of Change - We fail to translate emerging requirements into change at pace
Is this our Profession….?

Most people don’t understand quality
Rare presence in the boardroom
No clear definition
Quality is all about compliance and inspection
Profession parameters are unclear
QPs can’t agree
QPs don’t speak business
QPs’ value isn't recognised
Quality has a low profile
Members accept their profession is 2nd tier
The CQI
The Members’ Voice
We deliver value but organisations don’t get it. We want the CQI to…
• Improve the perception of Quality Management in industry
• Improve the perception of the ‘Chartered’ Quality Professional with employers to
make me more employable
• Improved membership benefits, especially through knowledge and CPD services
The CQI
The Employers’ Voice
The traditional Quality Professional does not deliver value. We want the CQI to help us:• Increase capability of the quality profession to provide value to organisations
• Increase capacity by making quality an attractive career option
• Provide industry solutions to Learning & Development
• Act as a focal point for industry to improve Quality Management
• Ensure our products and service are appropriate and accessible globally to support our
international operations
The new Quality Professional
This profession must:• Change the way it is perceived
• Emphasise the value-to-business aspects
• Emphasise the leadership aspects
• Develop a credible definition
• Sell itself i.e. emphasise value
The CQI
Our Customers Focus:-
• We must focus on understanding and meeting the requirements of
employers and senior quality professionals and developing a global
community of Quality Leaders who advocate on behalf of the CQI
Our Pace of Change:• We must refocus our processes and resources (executive and volunteer)
on repositioning the QP and the CQI at pace, through effective change
management.
• Leadership Skills Framework (PPP)
