Baldrige Executive Fellows Program:
Deadline: Monday, December 16
The Baldrige Program is now seeking candidates for the 2025 Baldrige Executive Fellows Program, a year-long leadership development experience designed to facilitate dialogue on all aspects of leadership and how it relates to a visionary focus, strategy, operational excellence, customer and employee engagement, resilience, and sustainability. Fellows visit Baldrige Award recipient organizations to see best practices in action, work on a capstone project of strategic significance for their own organizations, and learn the Baldrige Excellence Framework through the lens of leadership.
Alumni Fellows Say. . . .
"The fellowship has provided me with sources of knowledge and wisdom that I could never have received in a million years of reading professional development books. I will be forever grateful for the relationships and knowledge that I have gained through Baldrige."
"The fellowship was a tremendous learning opportunity.
The Baldrige program arms you with practical information that can be used to improve performance and drive value in your organization."
"The tangible and tactical nature of the information was immediately applicable in my own organization. Having a 'behind-the-scenes' look into how these processes were implemented brought to life possibilities for my own place of work."
"Networking with peers has enabled me to expand my personal contacts for both personal growth as well as sources of information with business needs."
"I will forever look at performance excellence, quality, and planning only from the Baldrige framework. Now, I do not believe there is any other way to conduct business."
"The fellowship allows you to see sustaining innovation in action and
find ways to transplant those best practices into your own organization,
or into your own personal leadership practice."
"The fellowship has provided me with real-life examples of how performance excellence
can change organizational culture. The examples from the organizations that presented gave real testimony to the power of Baldrige."
