The newly adopted ICH E8(R1), section 3.3.1 encourages organizations to “create a culture that values and rewards critical thinking and open, proactive dialogue about what is critical to quality for a particular study or development program, going beyond sole reliance on tools and checklists.” This has generated many questions across the industry including: what is a culture of quality, how can organizations encourage and reward quality cultural behaviors, and how can organizations to measure and monitor quality culture? This session will explore how organizations are cultivating an environment that fosters critical thinkers, why quality culture should be an elemental attitude integrated in organizational structures and behaviors and how to measure, monitor and support desired quality culture behaviors.

Learning Objectives
