Company & Community: Curiosity in Action and New Resources

August 22, 20252 min read

This section of the newsletter isn’t intended as a sales pitch. It’s a space to share the different ways we’re working to support and connect with people across our industry, as well as to highlight notable successes from the wider QA community. In future editions, we’d love to feature stories from you too.

That said, this particular edition does focus on a few of our own launches and projects. We hope you’ll see them not simply as “products” but as new opportunities to engage, learn, and grow together.

📖 New Book Release – Is Your Audit of QA Working for You?

Our new book is out now. In it, Frankie and I explore a key question: is your audit of QA adding real value? You can get it through our website, or in paperback and Kindle on Amazon.

This follows other Headway guides and resources we’ve been developing, with more titles on the way as we expand our online store.

🎯 Curiosity in Action – A Limited Coaching Programme

At the upcoming RQA International Conference, I will present Curious Conversations: Reclaiming Scientific Thinking to Transform Leadership in Pharma. To carry the theme beyond the stage, I’ve launched Curiosity in Action, a 3-session, 1:1 coaching journey designed for GLP and GCP QA professionals who feel their career momentum has plateaued. This is a limited-edition coaching programme available for those curious about their own QA career, available only until the end of this year and with an even more special offer for those that book before the end of the conference!

Through curiosity-driven coaching, you’ll:

  • Identify and reframe the challenges holding you back

  • Build confidence and influence in the moments that matter

  • Create a practical action plan to restart your progression

The package includes access to a private peer community (open until the end of 2025) and a free digital copy of my book When the Science Isn’t Enough.Only 10 places are available.

🌐 Community Waitlist Now Open

We’re building something bigger: the Headway Learning Lounge, a professional community for QA professionals who want to take control of their careers and connect with others in the field. The waitlist is now open, and those who sign up will be first to hear when doors open.

💡 What Do You Want to See Next?

Ideas are never in short supply here at Headway, but we want to make sure we’re creating what matters most to you. Where do you feel our industry lacks support or honest conversation? What resources would help in your work right now?

Drop us a note - your feedback will shape what we create next.
