gauguste.pngHello Friends and ASQ Colleagues,

 

My name is Gerard Auguste, and I am your local San Francisco Chair for ASQ.  This past year we re-activated the San Francisco section and had a few successful events.  Thank you for participating and for your continuing membership!

 

Your San Francisco ASQ section would love to organize more exciting and networking events for you.  We are a little short-handed in staff, so we need your help!  We are looking for volunteers for the following posts:

 

Program Chair

Newsletter Editor

Secretary

Event Planner Assistant

 

In addition, this coming year is an opportunity to get elected as a leader of your local section.  Both the current Chair and Treasurer are reaching term limits (two years) this Spring, so we must find replacements for the two of us.  If you are interested in being nominated for either of these officer positions, or any of the others listed above, please contact me by clicking here, and I will be happy to speak with you about positions such as Newsletter Editor or Program Chair, or forward your request to be nominated as an officer to our Nominations Committee Chair for his committee's recommendations to the section membership this Spring.

Presentation: After some networking, one hour showing of the NOVA documentary "The Space Shuttle Disaster", a film about the disaster of the Space Shuttle Columbia" in 2003, that covers the investigation of the human failure and design flaws behind the Columbia tragedy and:

  • The "insider" who warns of the problems & calls to action that went unheeded
  • The investigator who fought NASA officials' denial with hard evidence
  • Discovering the cause of the tragedy after piecing together the debris
  • Arguments within the aerospace community for and against future Space Shuttle missions

 

Following the film, we will have a discussion about the Space Shuttle disaster and how it could have been avoided by implementing the tools of an effective quality management system.  Then, more networking afterwards.
