“Becoming a Partners in Performance Excellence Examiner was a rigorous, disciplined and time-consuming immersion in Baldrige theory and practical application. It challenged my own learnings, and led to numerous discussions and debates about how to move our organization towards true excellence. I put a lot more effort into it than I expected and the returns justified every bit.”
