“I have been a member of the LNS Global Executive Council for a year and have had a very successful experience with them. LNS Research is a thought leader in the area of enterprise quality and environmental management. The quarterly council meetings have been important for gaining insights into best practices from leading companies, and I have used these insights to develop improvement plans in our own systems and culture”.

“We have been working on several initiatives around quality metrics and systems implementation. The LNS Research team experts have given me access to benchmark data from hundreds of global quality executives, connected me to peer council members, and provided me with key insights and best practices in this space. This has been very useful as I have been trying to make some critical decisions around my quality and compliance software strategy”.
