Baldrige
Organizational Excellence: Bahrain
Organizational excellence tools and
resources for Bahrain from the most experienced source
The Baldrige, EFQM, Singapore and other national
excellence Criteria have opened up the world to me and have allowed me
to enjoy visiting and learning about many cultures. Working with many of
the best organizations in these great places has allowed me to learn how
much about how they have achieved world-class excellence. This webpage
celebrates these wonderful experiences with photos and more importantly
shares what I have learned from assessing hundreds of organizations in
more than 30 countries for over 20 years and also from working with
Dr. W. Edwards Deming and
Dr. Armand (Val) Feigenbaum for seven years.

Training: |
Most experienced Baldrige trainer -
trained thousands more people in Self-Assessment than the
Baldrige Award Program since 1988 using the same 3-day format
and the same materials as Baldrige. CEUs, certification, and
graduate university credit offered. |
|
Application Development: |
Make your first draft your final draft
using my experience, integrated Criteria Response Templates, and
Baldrige Best Practice Process Models. Finish in about two weeks
and not several months. |
|
Assessment: |
Diligence,
objectivity, an actionable feedback report, and unsurpassed
experience since year one of the Baldrige Award Program. I have
assessed more than 22 national Baldrige Criteria-based award
winners since 2007 - no one else comes close. Breakthrough: If
you use the interview assessment approach, there is no
writing and the information captured can be used to generate the
final draft of your application saving you months of painful
writing. |
|
Site Visit Preparation: |
Preparation guidance and simulation (mock
site visit) - a Baldrige site visit should be a positive and fun
experience for your organization. Knowing in advance what
questions they will ask, what documentation they will request,
who they will talk to, and where they will go is the key to
success. |
|
Going
Beyond Baldrige: |
Baldrige
Award winners only score about 600 out of 1,000 possible points.
Scoring significantly above 800 is easier, faster and much less
costly than continuously improving to 600 when you implement a
Total Baldrige Integrated Excellence System. It is readily
adaptable to all types of public sector, healthcare, education,
and private sector organizations. Preserve your culture and
everything that works in your existing processes. Only change
the process steps that are not needed or not capable of
delivering excellent performance. See illustration below or call

Baldrige Organizational Excellence Tools
(Available for the Business, Nonprofit -
Public Sector, Education and Health Care Criteria in most cases)
Introducing:
OrgProfiler. The Organizational
Profile (OP) is the basis for all Baldrige assessments. It is a set of "What"
questions designed to capture the key attributes of your organization and to
guide the assessors by informing them who you are, what you do, and what is
important to your success. Everything else in the application needs to be
compatible and integrated with it.
OrgProfiler ensures that you completely and correctly
input the necessary information which automatically integrates to all key
topics. Many organizations pay consultants tens of thousands of dollars to
help them write their OP.
OrgProfiler costs only $95 and
there is no consultant who can outperform it.
Click to
order OrgProfiler online or
call 425 957-1921 to order and have it shipped via email. Visa and
MasterCard orders ship immediately upon receipt of payment.
Bonus: A Free upgrade to the
2011 - 2012 OrgProfiler is included. For more information,

I have made 22 visits
and worked 31 weeks in the Middle East since 2006 and it has become a second
home for me since first working in Bahrain in 2000. Please enjoy these photos
from Bahrain and many other special Middle East photos below.

The
Baldrige Excellence Model
(Note: EFQM Model also available)
The graphic below depicts the Baldrige Model in terms of its
integrated processes and systems. This is the best tool to accelerate your
organization's overall rate of improvement.
(Total Integrated Baldrige Excellence System)
Each process in the Total Baldrige Integrated Excellence
System is actually a core process that has been updated using
knowledge gained from hundreds of assessments of public and private sector and
health care and education Criteria users worldwide. These core processes
are the 'best of the best'. However, the best processes in the world
are useless unless you and your colleagues can accept and implement them. I have
30 years of experience in facilitating implementation of processes and systems
while preserving the culture and special needs of various sizes and types of
organizations. It is much easier to do than most people think. The key to
success is to replace the core of your existing processes which are not capable
of best-in-class performance with a best practice core processes. This
allows you to preserve everything that works well, everything important to your
success, your culture, and everything you are already the expert in.
Replacing incapable core processes with highly
capable ones causes a shift in your improvement rate from gradual to
breakthrough. I can do this for you for any process or system in the graphic or
I can teach you how to do it. Please contact me and I will be pleased to discuss
this with you or visit with you.
