Folks:
I work in a company where I dot-line report to plant manager and directly report to regional quality director, who works in another city. As I am responsible for the quality department in this company, I have the final say of product release. It seems that the plant manager here is more interested in production performance, like yield, productivity than in quality performance and continual improvement. Same quality issues occurred again and again without effective countermeasures. For this, I had many big rows with the plant manager here and had to go upstairs and report quality issues to regional QA director, who reported my quality issues to regional general manager, who pushed plant manager to take corrective actions. I don't know the way I dealt with things was correct. I sometimes feel that I got caught in the middle.
My questions are
(1) Does the dual reporting system itself create problems and conflicts
(2) Who is more important to me, regional QA director or plant manager
(3) What should I do to change my current situation to avoid conflict and let myself be happier?
I appreciate your answer.
Thanks!
