Key Take-Aways
@ACBSPAccredited #ACBSP2016
• Quality Management just makes sense!• Surround your self with a core team of change agents• Deep and constant faculty and staff involvement is
mandatory• Be flexible…very flexible• Don’t just Pull …You have to have the courage to Push
sometimes• Do not allow criticism on the lack of proper project
management…Have a best-in-class project management• Do not let the Nay Sayers have the last word …because
they can not.
