A Toolkit for Continuous Improvement: Angel M. Fonseca, Faculty Sarah G. Petsis, Administrator Ellen S. Young, Staff A Practical Approach
The Journey • Joined AQIP in 2003 • Launched three Action Projects • Launched writing team for Systems Portfolio • Appraisal Feedback enlightened us Making quality improvement a “way of doing business” required some tools…quality tools.
AP4 and Training SALE • CQIN (Continuous Quality Improvement Network) 2008 project • Launched Action Project 4: Sustaining a Quality Culture • Initiated quality tools training
Lessons Learned • Discovered we already used some tools, but inconsistently • Documented all tools we found useful, and how we might use them
Consensus Building • Consensus Building • Difficult to attain with different perspectives • NOT a unanimous or majority vote • Can be supported by everyone, no one opposes Once the decision is made…Can I live with it?
Scenario • Arrange in work groups • Scenario – Who gets the money? • Department has $1,000 of a $20,000 budget remaining • Four different faculty request the full $1,000 • Read the Scenario Four requests for $1000……..Who gets the money?
Brainstorming • To build consensus, brainstorm criteria for decision making… • Select a recorder • Allow all contributions • Don’t censor and don’t criticize • No discussion required…. • You have 60 seconds…………..GO! What criteria should be considered for award?
Brainstorming Completed If we had spent more time brainstorming…
Multi-Voting • How do we narrow our brainstorming list to something manageable? • How do we get everyone’s ideas included? • How do we establish consensus?
Multi-Voting • Vote on 1/3 of total items • Place a tally next to the five (5) items you think are the most important criteria • You have 5 minutes… VOTE! Every vote counts…everyone gets a voice!
Multi-Voting Review • Continue rounds of voting as many times as necessary • Identifies most important criteria • Reduces the list
Weighted Voting • More votes = more weight Consensus is gained…Decision is upheld.
PDCA as a QI Tool • Four step problem-solving process • Shewhart cycle, made popular by Deming • Other tools were organized by the PDCA cycle…
PDCA as a Story Board Plan…Do…Check…Act…………………….continuously
