The Option 1 Application is more than an award application. As your team answers the Option 1 Application questions, you will find that there are some questions that are easy to answer – but some that are far more difficult. As your team discusses and explores these questions, you’ll find that your team forms a consensus on the key factors facing your organization and are much more aligned in how you view the organization.
Workshop objectives:
- Explore the value of Baldrige and understand PEN’s Award process.
- Write a draft of your organization’s Option 1 Award Application.
- Understand what PEN Evaluators are looking for in Option 1 applications and why those are important to your organization.
- Understand the technical requirements of the Option 1 Award application.
When you leave the workshop with your application, you will want to review it with your key staff and do one last proofing before submitting by the PEN submission deadline – after which, you’ll receive feedback (to help you identify and prioritize organizational opportunities for improvement) and recognition.
Who should attend and what is the investment?
We recommend that a team of at least three -- but ideally your whole team of -- senior leaders attend this session. Workshop fees cover teams of 3-6 (additional participants are slightly more to cover catering costs): team fees are $900 for PEN members ($1800 for non-members), which covers the knowledge, materials, and breakfast/lunch.
Workshop hosted at a location TBD in the Twin Cities.
