 The ASQ-509 Performance Excellence SIG Proudly Presents

 

"Strategy Development and Implementation: Two Case Studies"

 

Craig Anderson and Stefanie Karp

Thursday, October 10, 2013

Washington DC Metro Headquarters

 

Program Summary:  The Indonesian State Audit Board (BPK) and the American Trucking Associations (ATA): what do they have in common? Everything! When it comes to strategic planning and implementation, the common mistakes and lessons learned are strikingly similar across borders and organizations. That�s why the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence, although an American created framework, are universal in their usability. Join us for a spirited discussion of strategy development and implementation using the BPK and ATA case studies and examples from your own organizations.
