Redefining Excellence

The Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Program

How do we begin to find our way to redefined excellence?

Average performance is failure. 99th percentile performance is admirable but still not representative of the potential of a truly high performing leadership and organization. We guide leaders on how to redefine excellence—to redefine and then achieve what it means to be best-in-industry. In industries such as health care that perform well below the potential of the workforce, achieving the 99th percentile is still too low. Therefore, we guide leaders and managers on how to think as well as act differently. We provide assistance in developing internal expertise on key tools such as LEAN and SIX SIGMA, and we guide the adoption of performance targets that may have once been set at the top quartile or decile to be eventually replaced with the pursuit of strategy and operations to achieve a redefined the 99th percentile.
