RMPEx Examiners

Why Serve?

Serving as an examiner is a chance to apply the skills learned in training within the confines of a process designed and supported by experienced, master examiners. It’s the ultimate learning opportunity!

Unlike most case study learning scenarios that rely on individuals discussing an organization’s performance by using a historical analysis prepared by others, as an RMPEx examiner, you become a part of the team completing the analysis and writing the report that will drive a specific organization forward.

As an examiner, you’ll be an intricate part of writing the case study, validating an understanding of the Baldrige Excellence Framework and that Leadership, Strategy, Customers, Knowledge Management, Workforce and Operations are the six ways to reach performance excellence inside ANY organization.

Why train?

Through comprehensive training, examiners gain the ability to evaluate processes at varying levels of complexity – from grasping the core concept to dissecting intricate details.

Examiners learn to assess a process’s systematic implementation and commitment to continuous learning, recognizing the crucial role this plays in fostering an organizational culture of knowledge.

Additionally, they develop the discernment to differentiate between defined priorities and actual practices, ultimately acquiring an understanding of how organizational results evolve over time and require comparative analysis to determine true effectiveness.

Each year, I have grown my understanding and confidence in the criteria and practices. I take this newly gained knowledge back to my organization and apply it to support Continuous Improvement in our daily work.
