- Proud to see our colleague Filip Szabłowski from Phronesys Polska Sp z. o.o. taking the stage at Dni Jakości 2026! 🇵🇱 Turning data into meaningful decisions is one of the key challenges in quality management. Collecting information is one thing. Using it to identify risks, drive improvements and achieve better results is what truly matters.A great opportunity to share practical insights and contribute to the quality management community. Well done, Filip! 👏
- I know Ruth from the Belgian Business Chamber in Poland. She combines a strong academic background with real business sense and is simply a great person to deal with. This looks like a very interesting opportunity for someone ready to take ownership and help shape the next chapter of Cyclops Belgium.
- A Statement of Applicability should never be just a document prepared for an audit. Its real value lies in connecting risks, controls, responsibilities and evidence and in reflecting how the organization actually operates. When kept alive, the SoA becomes a management tool, not a compliance checkbox. Well said Filip Szabłowski!
