    Season 8, Episode 12 of the Reliability Leader Podcast is here!  This week, we dive into a topic that hits close to home for anyone who values reliable products: Maintenance and Its Role in Value and Reliability. In this episode, listen to me share a compelling story of buying a Ducati Multi Strada, exploring how maintenance records, care, and the owner’s connection can predict a product's performance and longevity. From motorcycles to critical machinery, I break down how maintenance isn’t just a technical requirement—it’s a testament to trust and craftsmanship. Why maintenance is a crucial part of reliability. The role of certifications and individual accountability in critical applications. What brands need to consider when creating products that depend on upkeep.  Listen now! #ReliabilityLeader #Podcast #MaintenanceMatters #ProductReliability #Leadership #Innovation

    RL# 8-11: The Real Meaning of Reliability: Building Products That Last

    Reliability isn’t just about machines—it’s about understanding how things work in the real world. In this episode of the Reliability Leader Podcast, I share why defining "reliability" clearly is the key to success. Whether it’s a car, a medical device, or even a product you use every day, knowing how it’s meant to be used, where it’s used, and how long it’s expected to last makes all the difference. I also talk about real-life examples—like how a simple cleaning product caused unexpected failures in a medical device. It's these little things that can make or break a product. This episode is all about making sure everyone—engineers, managers, and even executives—are on the same page when it comes to reliability. Let’s dig into how we can design products that last and keep customers happy. Listen Now! #reliabilityleader #podcast #productdesign #leadership #reliability
