Excellence International

The Baldrige, EFQM, Australian, Singapore and other excellence Criteria have opened up the world to me and have allowed me to enjoy visiting and learning about many cultures. Working with many of the best organizations in these great places has allowed me to learn how much about how they have achieved world-class excellence. This Baldrige International webpage celebrates these wonderful experiences with photos and more importantly shares what I have learned from assessing hundreds of organizations over 20 years and from working with Dr. W. Edwards Deming and Dr. Armand (Val) Feigenbaum for seven years. Paul Steel
