SpeakerPhoto Program: Quality for Laws and Lawmaking
Speaker: David G. Schrunk, M. D.

Quality principles have been used in manufacturing for decades and have significantly improved manufacturing process effectiveness, but quality has yet to be used in the process of making laws. Laws are created without root cause understanding and are never evaluated for effectiveness. Dr. Schrunk will discuss the expansion of quality programs (quality design, quality assurance, and quality improvement) to encompass laws of government and the lawmaking process. Quality has also proven to be highly effective and beneficial in major industries like health care and air transportation, and it promises to be equally effective and beneficial for the lawmaking industry. The value of quality is that it will improve our system of governance and transform lawmaking into a knowledge industry.

About the Speaker:
David G. Schrunk is an engineer and medical doctor. He supervised quality programs in radiology and nuclear medicine during his practice of medicine in the Palomar-Pomerado Health Care System from 1975 to 1994. Dr. Schrunk is the president of the Quality of Laws Institute of Poway, California, and is the author of the book, THE END OF CHAOS: Quality Laws and the Ascendancy of Democracy.
