Adjunct Professor in Process Management at Seattle Pacific University, Faculty Director of Abu Dhabi University Institute for Executive Development, Visiting Graduate School Professor in the Industrial Engineering Quality Management Program UPH, Jakarta, and member of the Global Indian International School Centre of Educational Excellence Board of Directors . . . I never imagined or targeted achieving any of these but I am guilty of aggressively sharing what I've learned from some of the best teachers and mentors including Dr. W. Edwards Deming and Dr. Armand (Val) Feigenbaum whom I worked with for seven years
Examples of Recent Education Projects
I have been privileged to work for several years with key educational leaders and Ministry of Education officials in Malaysia. The photo below is special in that Malaysia's largest university invited me to pose with their Prime Minister's Quality Award in front of a mural of the Malaysian Kings who automatically become University Chancellor.

Baldrige Excellence Tools for Education
What big changes are in the new 2011 - 2012 Education Criteria?
Will the Criteria become more 'entrepreneurial' in nature? NIST announced their intent to do this at training this year. But, what does this mean? Many users hope they will become dramatically leaner.
Will the number of Results Items in Category 7 be reduced from 6 to 4 as NIST has indicated?
Will all the 'What' questions be relocated to the Organizational Profile? Will the Organizational Profile questions be linked to the Criteria to improve understanding consistency?
Will the Customer Focus and Workforce Focus Categories be rewritten to remove the perceived redundancies?
Will the confusion related to 'work processes' and 'work systems' be effectively addressed?
Do we really need two similar Items in Category 6?
Will a relationship hierarchy be established among the terms: 'data', 'information', and 'knowledge'? For example, should the 'Management by Fact' Core Value be upgraded to 'Management by Knowledge'?
Will we see all the non-mainstream terminology purged?
The 2009 - 2010 Criteria have more words than the original 1988 Criteria and more than double the words when you include the explanatory notes. The highly regarded Singapore Criteria are Baldrige-based but have deleted more than 3,000 words. Maybe it is time to downsize big time?
Check back soon for the answers? Or, email ToQual@gmail.com now to request the 2011 - 2012 Health Care Criteria (and other versions too) be sent to you as soon as they become available.
