Apply fundamentals of Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence to improve project results!

Ever wonder why most projects, plans, training programs, or processes fail to deliver expected results?

The answer lies in the Baldrige Excellence Framework. Whether you work for a company that uses the Baldrige or not, understanding the fundamentals of The Criteria for Performance Excellence will help you improve project results.

In this session, we will:

• Simplify the Criteria to a framework of interconnected gears
• Discuss how “ADLI” is used to design and improve processes
  • Approach: there is a right way to do the process
  • Deployment: the approach is consistently used
  • Learning: processes are systematically reviewed and improved
  • Integration: the gears are interconnected
• Explain how “LeTCI” is key to monitoring long term results
  • Level: current performance
  • Trend: is performance improving?
  • Comparison: how targets are set and evaluated
  • Integration: key balanced measures are monitored and improving
