| Quality Management Systems and Their Vital Role in Improvement | 12 Aug 2026 | 00:14:39 | |
Improvement and quality often share the same goals, yet in many organisations they operate in separate worlds, with one focused on projects and change, and the other on control and compliance. But what if that divide is limiting your ability to embed lasting improvement? Join Director Consultant Warren Knight as he explores the connection between Continuous Improvement and Quality Management, challenging common assumptions and revealing why a well-designed QMS may have far more to offer than many improvement practitioners realise.

| Flowcharting: The Three Steps to Clarity and Value | 15 Jul 2026 | 00:18:21 | |
How confident are you that your team sees the process the same way you do? You might view flowcharting as a drawing exercise, but in reality, it’s a thinking tool. A framework for helping teams explore messy processes to reveal what people assume, what they disagree on, and what they’ve never properly surfaced. Drawing on his own improvement project experience, Senior Consultant, Mark Allison talks through three levels of flowcharting that help improvement practitioners move from high-level clarity into the deeper issues sitting in handoffs, rework, and unclear ownership.

| Why ADKAR Needs SOPK | 10 Jun 2026 | 00:14:45 | |
ADKAR is familiar territory for many improvement practitioners. Awareness, desire, knowledge, ability, reinforcement… a neat pathway to guide people through change. But what happens when you’ve ticked every box and adoption still falls short? Join Laurence Restarick as he invites you to step back, think system-wide, and see change through a different lens, as he reframes ADKAR from a checklist to a diagnostic tool. Because sometimes resistance has less to do with people themselves, and more to do with the system they’re working within.

| Using PDSA With Your AI Use Cases | 11 Mar 2026 | 00:10:53 | |
Ever felt that AI experiments seem to start with excitement, then stall when the results don’t quite land? PMI Senior Consultant Anthony Richardson digs into why that happens, and why the real breakthrough often comes when you stop hunting for the “perfect prompt” and start treating AI like any other improvement experiment. It’s a conversation that reframes AI work as iterative, scientific and far more familiar to improvement practitioners than they might expect. A small shift in mindset; a big shift in outcomes.

What if the biggest thing holding you back as a leader is something everyone can see, except you? Join PMI Partner Consultant Des Kelly as he explores the Johari Window, and how expanding your “open” area changes the way you show up at work. From habits you didn’t realise others notice to the untapped potential sitting in the unknown, this deceptively simple 1950s model still triggers big “aha” moments for today’s improvement practitioners. Listen now and start developing the kind of self‑awareness that will quietly change how you lead. More resources:

| Connecting Strategy to Process Management | 04 Feb 2026 | 00:15:41 | |
Tired of overloaded functions and fragile strategies that don’t hold up in reality? Improvement lives where strategy meets process management. When you connect strategic goals to owned value streams and day-to-day process management, you create a pull for change instead of another cycle of overcommitted teams and stalled initiatives. Join PMI Director Consultant Sean Buckland as he explores the principles behind connecting strategy to process management, using clear explanations, relatable examples, and practical clarity that will help your organisation move from strategy on paper to progress you can see.

| Has Strategy Deployment Lost Its Lean? | 07 Jan 2026 | 00:18:17 | |
If your strategy deployment feels like a box-ticking exercise, it’s a sign that something fundamental has been lost along the way. In this episode of Uncommon Sense, PMI Director Consultant Sean Buckland explores how Lean strategy deployment has quietly drifted away from its roots. Instead of connecting strategy to value streams, teams and learning, many organisations have replaced process with targets, and called it progress. Listen now and discover what true Lean strategy deployment looks like, and how to spot when your strategy is drifting into a wish list.

| When Improvement Projects Don’t Progress | 10 Dec 2025 | 00:13:36 | |
Improvement practitioners know the fear: you’ve done the work, you’ve found the solution… but your improvement project just doesn’t progress. The reality is that sometimes budget shifts, priorities change, stakeholders block. But stalled improvement projects aren’t wasted. In this episode, Damion Albinson joins Susannah Clarke to unpack what you still gain when implementation doesn’t happen. From uncovering hidden quick wins, to spotting strategic misalignment early, to resetting how teams think about feasibility, Damion shows why these moments are some of the richest learning opportunities in the improvement cycle.

| The Role of Leaders in AI Adoption | 26 Nov 2025 | 00:16:28 | |
If your team isn’t using AI yet, it’s not just their problem. It’s yours. The innovators will dive in fearlessly, while the survivors hold back. Your challenge? Create the conditions for confident experimentation without risking chaos. Join Anthony Richardson in the studio with Susannah Clarke as they explore how leaders can anchor AI adoption in process thinking and turn hesitation into action. Drawing on real examples from PMI’s AI for Leaders programme, Anthony shows how recognising the spectrum of adoption helps leaders create the conditions for safe experimentation, early wins, and lasting impact. How can you bring AI into your team in a way that treats it as a valued digital colleague? Tune in to find out.

| From Unconscious Incompetence to Consciously Competent | 12 Nov 2025 | 00:14:57 | |
Sometimes the biggest risks in your business aren’t obvious. They’re hidden in the gaps between teams. Work gets done, but critical information gets lost, compliance slips, and frustration builds. In this episode, Damion Albinson and Susannah Clarke reveal how understanding the internal voice of the customer transforms how teams collaborate. Using real examples from a complex logistics environment, Damion shows how moving from “I didn’t know you needed that” to consciously understanding your role in the wider process can make a real difference. If you want practical insight into bridging the hidden gaps in your processes and building a team that’s consciously competent, this episode is a must-listen. More resources: More from PMI:

What exactly is the problem? And what isn’t? It sounds simple, but getting clarity here can be the difference between chasing assumptions and finding the real root cause. Join PMI Director Consultant Stuart Gibson in the studio with Susannah Clarke as they discuss Is/Is Not, a beautifully simple tool often underused in problem solving. With a practical example involving soggy pizzas, Stuart shows how moving beyond scoping questions can generate powerful clues, test theories, and steer you toward evidence-based solutions.

Different approaches, same goal: better performance. That’s why Agile and Lean Six Sigma work together; aligning people, roles, and responsibilities to get the best out of every team. Join Anthony Richardson in conversation with Susannah Clarke as they reveal how Lean Six Sigma roles like Green Belts, Black Belts, and Sponsors align with Agile roles such as Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers. Learn when and how these roles intersect, why it matters for delivering improvements, and how clear role alignment can make your projects faster, smarter, and more effective.

It’s a classic tool. But its reach is far wider than you might think. Join PMI Consultant Des Kelly as he explains what Failure Modes Effects Analysis (FMEA) really is, how the 2019 global standard changed the game, and why Process FMEA now belongs in hospitals, call centres, control rooms and corporate functions as much as on the shop floor. If you run, design, or depend on any process (yes, that means you!), you’ll see how FMEA can strengthen performance where it matters most, and start questioning why you ever left risk management to chance.

| Correlations: Unravelling Relationships | 25 Jun 2025 | 00:11:41 | |
“If I change this… what happens over there?” It’s a familiar question in improvement, and one that correlation helps us explore with rigour and insight. Join PMI Consultant Niall Coney as he breaks down the concept of correlation and its role in uncovering meaningful relationships. Using practical examples, from machine settings to wellbeing initiatives, he explains how correlation and regression support evidence-based decisions, help avoid blind spots and focus improvement where it matters. But it’s not all good news. Niall also highlights essential cautions, including the limits of correlation, why causation can’t be assumed, and when covariance offers a sharper lens on variation. Ready to move beyond surface observations and understand what’s really driving performance? This is essential listening. More resources:

| The Purpose of Process | 28 May 2025 | 00:15:08 | |
It’s a deceptively simple question: What is the purpose of this process? An unclear process purpose is one of the most overlooked causes of waste, misaligned priorities, poor decisions, and missed improvement opportunities. Yet too often, teams dive into complex redesign without first agreeing on why the process exists at all. Join PMI Director Consultant Stuart Gibson as he shows how stepping back to define process purpose clearly and collaboratively can uncover hidden value, prevent confusion, and drive more effective improvement efforts. Expect practical insights, thoughtful examples, and a reminder that common sense isn’t always common practice. More resources you may find helpful:

| The Challenges of Defining Value Add | 14 May 2025 | 00:11:15 | |
It’s simple: identify what’s valuable and do more of it. But in practice, defining what truly adds value and what doesn’t, can be far from straightforward. PMI Consultant Damion Albinson explores why defining “value add” is one of the trickiest yet most essential concepts in improvement. From legislative red tape to emotional resistance, he shares how well-intentioned tasks can cloud our view of what's really worth doing. Hear how to distinguish truly necessary work from disguised waste, why being comfortable with calling things "non-value add" reveals opportunity for real transformation, and how to navigate the emotional terrain of challenging long-held habits.

Whether you’re working on improvement in manufacturing or marketing, operations or organisational change, don’t let the fear of complex statistical calculations hold you back. It’s about asking better questions and digesting the answers.
