NorthEast Center for ExcellenceA Sample of Our Education Offerings:

It’s All About Real Leadership, Period!—get an understanding of what the Baldrige Criteria is really all about, what to consider and look for in your company. This workshop ranges from a basic overview to the comprehensive. We also provide Executive Coaching.

Bringing Quantitative Process Improvement to the Streets!—A realistic, effective, and rather simple approach to understanding measures, collecting data, variation, root cause analysis, solution testing and standardization, in a step–by–step methodology using project management concepts. This introduces staff and colleagues to the concepts of six–sigma, lean processes, and project management without expensive certifications or special qualifications.

Create Your Own Monsters!—Create your own internal experts–it’s the assessment experience of a lifetime! This is a very comprehensive examination of the Baldrige Criteria with a required follow–up to use in a very practical application–your company!

Extreme Before & After Strategy!—Sure, we can facilitate your strategy retreat, but do you have an effective strategic planning system in place? This workshop helps you create an effective development and deployment system. PlanBase seats can be included. Consider it!

We All Want a Say!—We use a methodology called Appreciative Inquiry to obtain feedback from a large number of people for use in strategy or for major decision–making. Very effective!
