Presented by Steve Bonk
The Malcolm Baldrige Performance Excellence Award is the first and only Presidential Award for organizational performance excellence. But the Baldrige criteria are also an integrated framework for managing an organization, and are used in thousands of organizations of all sizes. They can help an organization align resources; improve communication, productivity, and effectiveness; and achieve strategic goals. The presentation will cover the proven improvement and innovation framework for an organization in an integrated approach to management areas: leadership; strategic planning; customer focus; measurement, analysis, and knowledge management; workforce focus; process management; and results. This helps organizations evaluate performance, assess where improvements and innovation are most needed, and get results to effectively meet their missions and achieve their visions. The variations of the criteria for the health care industry and education, and the recent expansion into the not-for-profit and Government sectors will also be discussed, as well as the Quality Award programs for the States of Maryland and Virginia/District of Columbia.Steve Bonk has over 30 years of experience in IT program management and engineering and is employed by MITRE, presently supporting Veterans Benefit Administration Transformation.
