When Your Process Meets Reality - Andrea Baker, HOP Mentor - ATQ 22
What happens when the procedure looks right on paper, but real work tells a different story?
In this episode of All Things Quality, I’m joined by Andrea Baker, The HOP Mentor, for a practical conversation on Human and Organizational Performance (HOP) and what quality leaders can learn from the human side of work.
We get into how Andrea found her way into HOP, why safety and quality are more connected than many people realize, and how leaders can move from blame-based reactions to better learning. We also talk about procedure drift, person vs. system thinking, culture change, and where AI and technology can help—or hurt—when organizations are trying to understand how work really gets done.
