Business Performance Excellence

 

Leads To Enhanced Profitability


According to the Baldrige Excellence Framework (2015, p. 51),  performance excellence is defined as "... an integrated approach to organizational performance management that results in (1) delivery of ever-improving value to customers and stakeholders, contributing to organizational sustainability; (2) improvement of your organization's overall effectiveness and capabilities; and (3) learning for the organization and for people in the workforce."   Performance excellence is an ideal that is the result of an organizational commitment to an assessment and outcomes-based operational framework focused on continuous improvement and long-term sustainability.  

Whether you are a senior executive for a corporation, own a small or a mid-sized business, or you are a senior executive for a nonprofit organization, it is important to have in place an operational framework that is designed to foster your organization's journey toward performance excellence.   Further, it is equally important to have in place a comprehensive assessment plan that will identify key performance metrics, detail when and how the metrics will be assessed, and how the resultant outcomes will be used to promote continuous organizational improvement.   Unfortunately, while many businesses and organizations proclaim to have such a framework in place, they either lack critical components (e.g., an effective outcomes assessment plan) or fail to have strategies for the effective implementation of the framework.
