I recently came across the The Deming Cycle (PDCA) and had an ah-ha moment. This is how I approach operational improvement. PLAN identifies the friction or opportunity. DO implements a change. CHECK reviews results using feedback or data. ACT refines and improves as needed. This shows up across my work in customer experience, program operations, and stakeholder and partner engagement. PDCA normalizes iteration over perfection, and continuous improvement becomes a cycle, not a one-time fix. It isn’t something you adopt. It’s something you practice. Where do you see this cycle showing up in your work?
