Baldrige and EFQM Conferences, Presentations and Training

My presentations strive to deliver practical knowledge and the capability to use it. Conceptual knowledge is important but by itself it is not actionable. This is not easy to do but it is what needs to be done to be effective. Anything less is merely perishable inspiration. Engaging an audience is a set of challenges that vary with the expectations of each participant and organization. What works well today may not work as well tomorrow. Real-time flexibility is often needed as well as a lot of experience to be successful.

I'm Paul Steel and I can offer almost any type of talk, seminar, or workshop related to organizational improvement. I am able to share what I've learned from assessing hundreds of the world's top organizations and from working with the two of the best quality gurus (Dr. Edwards Deming and Dr. Armand Feigenbaum) and personal exchanges with Dr. Joseph Juran. I have assessed dozens national and international excellence award winners (Baldrige and EFQM) since 2007 - far more than anyone else. More than the valuable insight I gain, I strive to enable participants to actually use what they learn when they return to their organization. I do this by demonstrating the tools they need and train them using simulated exercises.

The topics to select from is unlimited but the focus is always on accelerating the rate of organizational improvement and cost reduction beyond the capabilities of the Continuous Improvement and Business Excellence approaches used by the masses. Please call me at  (1 425 444-4386) or email ToQual@Gmail.com to discuss how I can contribute to enabling your organization to meet its goals.

Please find some examples of my presentation experiences following. It includes more than 200 presentations worldwide as well as more than 300 in-house programs.
