THE MISSION OF TENNESSEE QUALITY AWARD, INC. D/B/A TENNESSEE CENTER FOR PERFORMANCE EXCELLENCE (TNCPE) IS TO DRIVE ORGANIZATIONAL EXCELLENCE IN TENNESSEE.
EVERY YEAR, TNCPE TRAINS 150-200 VOLUNTEERS TO SERVE ON ITS BOARD OF EXAMINERS. FOLLOWING THIS IN-DEPTH TRAINING IN THE CRITERIA FOR PERFORMANCE EXCELLENCE, EXAMINERS PROVIDE AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE TO TNCPE BY CONDUCTING THE EVALUATION AND FEEDBACK PROCESS. SOME EXAMINERS HAVE REFERRED TO THEIR EXPERIENCE AS A MINI MBA. THIS TRAINING ALSO EMPOWERS EXAMINERS TO APPLY THE CRITERIA AT THEIR OWN JOBS, IMPROVING PROCESSES AND RESULTS ALONG THE WAY. AS A RESULT, EXAMINERS SPREAD THE LESSONS OF THE CRITERIA AT A GRASS-ROOTS LEVEL - WHETHER OR NOT THEIR EMPLOYERS CHOOSE TO PARTICIPATE AS A TNCPE APPLICANT. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER WAY TNCPE ACHIEVES ITS MISSION TO LEAD BUSINESSES AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS IN THE PURSUIT OF PERFORMANCE EXCELLENCE.
