Share the Wealth – Become a Booster

When you say you are a member of ASQ, what does that mean to you?  To many of us, it is a way to stay tuned in to what’s going on and what’s changing in the world of Quality.  As we have seen in the National ASQ Future’s Study, the roles and responsibilities of the Quality Professional are changing and shifting.  Our local chapter is one way of preparing and educating ourselves for this changing role.  The ASQ Orange Empire Section’s mission is “to function as the premier ASQ section in serving its members & community. We will provide a strong leadership to promote quality in all areas, by supporting ASQ goals, by offering communication and education in quality methods, and by providing career development, quality resources, and personal growth through professional and social interaction.”  How many of us have benefited by attending monthly clinics and/or dinner meetings?  How many have learned or refreshed a skill set through seminars or breakfast meetings.  If you have been enriched by being a part of the ASQ Orange Empire Section, why not invite a co-worker or supervisor to benefit from attending an ASQ event?  By this simple act, you have become an ASQ Booster! 

Booster Responsibilities:

For those of you who are curious about our ASQ Boosters, here is a breakdown of what our Boosters do for us:

1.   Boosters act as their company’s primary contact between the ASQ Orange Empire Section and the company.

2.   They promote and distribute information regarding Section events, training activities, seminars, educational programs and refresher programs to their Quality Personnel and Senior Management.

3.   A Booster receives Section data from early receipt of the Scope Newsletter and can alert their peers of upcoming learning and networking opportunities.

4.   They reach out to other professional organizations within their company and promote ASQ as the leader of the Quality Profession with educational benefits available.

5.   Boosters attend an annual meeting for Booster activities to keep up with new activities and offer feedback on their professional needs.

6.   They support the Orange Empire Section membership chair and committee personnel in retaining members and helping the Section membership grow.

As a Booster, you are not only providing growth opportunities for your colleagues, you are becoming a valuable source of information of what our local Quality Professionals want and need.   Please contact me at vinaygoyal@sbcglobal.net to learn more about how you can be a link between the ASQ Orange Empire Section and your company or organization.
