The Audio Book Version of Do Quality Differently is FREE

The audio book version of Do Quality Differently is FREE. It is set up similar to a podcast and we encourage you to share the episodes with others who you want to influence and help.

The audio in the episodes have been created using a service called ElevenLabs. The voice is AI generated, and as such you will notice occasionally that some words are mangled and acronyms that are sometimes spoken as a word are sometimes later spelled out with the letters— and vice versa. This is rare, and when it does happen the context makes the meaning clear. ElevenLabs is relatively inexpensive, easy to use, and the audio output compared to other similar products is exceptional.

We chose AI for the audio book because it is both a time savings and cost savings. We believe we made a good choice.

As of the writing of this post, not all the chapters have been converted to audio. Our planned schedule is to create and post two chapters every two weeks. We do not plan to convert the Appendices or the content that follows to audio. You will need to purchase the book to have access to the following appendices.

Appendix A - Lego Activity for Humble Inquiry
Appendix B - Jenga Activity for Risk-Ready Review and Post-Job Review
Appendix C - Soma Cube Activity For After Action Review
Appendix D - Behavior Engineering Model (BEM) Analysis Worksheet
Appendix E - Application of Force Field Analysis and Behavior Engineering Model Worksheet

Enjoy. Stay kind and curious.

Closing Out The Year 2023

From the perspective of our book Do Quality Differently, 2023 began for Amy and I in March when our book was published. We are happy to share that we sold hundreds of softcover versions of that book, and we gave away hundreds more of our Kindle version of the book for free.

The year 2023 began to wind down in November with Amy and I presenting at Takeda’s 2023 Human & Organizational Performance Community of Practice meeting. The meeting was well attended by many biotech manufacturing companies. Two photos from the meeting are shared below.

What better way to close out 2023 than to receive written feedback from a reader of Do Quality Differently on 29DEC23. The following message was received via our website’s contact form, and we will maintain the anonymity of the sender. It is feedback like this that has made 2023 exceptional, and we hope to experience more in 2024. See you in 2024.

I am a Quality professional maybe about 25% of the way into my career. I had encountered the work of Todd Conklin almost by happy circumstance and have spent as much time as I can learning about Human and Organisational performance as I can since. It has really resonated with me.

I had a very brief chat to our EVP of Quality in November about it as I got a moment to exchange some ideas, and I spoke about how I think the same principles could apply to Quality. She pointed me in the direction of your book.

I started reading it maybe 3 or 4 days ago and basically couldn't put it down. If the work of Dr. Conklin and co. resonated with me, your work feels like it's helped provide a sharp focus. It's like suddenly getting a pair of glasses.

Thank you so much for the love and craft you have put into this book, and clearly the work you've done previously.

It's good to know that while I try learn and grow as a professional and to help my organisation move towards HOP as best I can, there are people like yourselves working to shift the industry and regulators.
