Subject: Migration from Development to Quality
Date: 6-Jul-2002
Question: I have 10 years of professional experience in embedded systems development. Now I realise that I have special flair for Quality and I can contributed perform well in Quality function(Developing and implementing Quality systems for Organisational development). During these 10 years, I have been exposed to various quality tools and systems. But I do not have any formal experience in Quality. Kindly suggest a suitable path to migrate to Quality without loosing credit of previous work experience.
Answer: Very difficult to do both together unless the company you work for encourages that. It is better to start taking much interest in actual doing as far as Quality is concerned. You are entering your mid career and it is time to consolidate and not dilute your achievements. Keep Quality as your side interest actively.
