Challenges to technological innovation

Innovation is a good thing. It opens the door to new technologies and processes that improve product quality. But, there are a host of practical considerations that come with change — particularly within the manufacturing world. Technological innovation often means a combination of new systems, new protocols, new machinery and new skill sets. For these reasons, some within your organization may be resistant to change. They cling to what’s familiar. And that can create barriers to effective quality management.

Overcoming resistance

Issues on quality management in manufacturing will continue to be a challenge as long as technological innovation continues to forge ahead. But there are ways to successfully implement change, and that starts with engaging your employees and communicating change effectively. Listen to their concerns, invite feedback and encourage them to be part of the change process. Implement the changes in several stages to avoid disruptions in workflow, and to mitigate employee anxiety.

Innovation is necessary in virtually all sectors of society. It’s how we, as a society, move forward! But incorporating innovation wisely is important to the success of your business.
