Baldrige Express: A Check Up for your Organization
Are you moving the needle on your organizational improvement efforts? How do you know?
Baldrige Express is a high-level diagnostic tool designed to help you gauge deployment of improvement initiatives. It is a survey-based assessment taken by members of your workforce. It's up to you whether you want to poll your entire staff, or select particular workforce sectors. The data are collected in a Likert-scale format, organized around the seven categories of the Baldrige Criteria. The results are then processed and published in an easy-to understand feedback report that you can use to identify gaps in your improvement efforts. WCPE will walk you through the process from start to finish, culminating in an assessment of the findings and action planning. It's quick, affordable, and impactful.
