Morphing Professions – Greg Hutchins

Greg Hutchins pixQur firm – Quality + Engineering – provides professional engineering, forensics, and risk management.  In the last two months, we’ve been contacted to:

1.  Manage outsourced quality operations.
2.  Reframe a much smaller quality group into a risk management group.
3.  Do a combination of the above.

Is the quality profession morphing, disappearing, or maturing?  Or, is this an anomaly to the quality profession?  I don’t think so!

We’re seeing more than one profession changing dramatically.  As I read the NY Times and Wall Street Journal, it’s happening to the legal, marketing, journalism and most professions.    Newly minted lawyers can’t get jobs.  Top law firms are changing their revenue models, revamping their partnership models, or are folding.  Marketing is moving on line, which requires new technical skills.  Journalism is also moving online.

So, the critical questions for most of us are:

  • What changes are happening in our profession?
  • How are we keeping current?
  • What value are we adding to our organization or customers?
