41 Why we embarked on this journey... At a Crossroads in 1997 Needed a drastic organizational culture change Transition from HRS Low staff satisfaction and morale Reactive vs. proactive culture Budget shortfall Data rich information poor Lack of systematic processes for evaluating organizational effectiveness/performance, and communication/feedback from internal and external customers

42 Getting Started...First Steps Top leadership commitment Established an entity to drive quality Adopted an organizational performance excellence model Identified quality mentors Initiated leadership development Conducted an organizational self assessment

43 What did we get from Self Assessment Identification of strengths and opportunities for improvement Jump Starts the improvement initiative Focused the organization on common goals and direction Assessed performance against self and benchmarks Aligned resources with strategy

44 Systems Integration and Improvements Over the Years Strategic Planning Process Enhanced environmental scan (internal and external) SWOT, MAPP, Stakeholder Involvement Focus on the critical few Documentation and Standardization of Key Processes Customer/Stakeholder listening points Data driven decision making Continuous improvement orientation (PDCA)
