hi.
My time is almost up, but I will still be around.
We swore in the new officers for the 2008-2009 year:
Executive Committee
Directors
Quality World went well this year, by all reports, check out the link to get information on the goings on down in Houston. Next year: World goes to Minneapolis.
As I step out as chair, I few thoughts to share:
One, this was brought to my attention by our Webmaster (whose shoes I aspire to fill in the coming years).
In basics, the model presented proposes that communities/societies/tribes/etc related to human existence and growth require 4 things, 3 of which are integral to the group environment:
1 - Stablity/Security of Locale (Virtual or Real)
2 - Continuity/Reaffirmation of Purpose (Virtual or Physical interactions)
3 - Recognition/Growth of Individuals (Realizing worth of individuals to the group)
and the one that is external:
4 - Outreach to bring in new ideas (Virtual or Real)
Thought I would share,… feel free to comment!
thanks,

Dear Fellow Section Members,
I have received a few requests for Six Sigma Black Belt refresher training in response to my blog notes about our upcoming basic Six-Sigma Black Belt workshop in June.
I could provide a Black Belt Refresher/ASQ Certification Preparation course, but I would need a minimum number of attendees to make it worthwhile. It would likely be a 12-week course (2-4 hour per week on a Monday and/or Wednesday evening) and you would probably need financial assistance from your business to pay for it. I have not determined a price yet, but you can figure around $1,800. I’ll provide the books.
If you are interested in a Black Belt Refresher/Certification Preparation course please send me an email. With enough interest I will and figure out a formal class schedule and price.
Yours,
-Matt Rowe

Note: The proposed course is NOT sponsored by the Indy ASQ section, but is an independent offering by me in response to a number of requests I have received from both ASQ members and non-members.
