Donald's presentation was delightfully entertaining, engaging, and motivating. . . the evening was filled with laughter and enjoyment. As a direct result of a very satisfied audience, four members of the audience stepped up to volunteer their time and skills to the Dallas Section ASQ. Thank you, Donald!

WHAT OUTCOMES DO YOU SEEK?

Benchmarking

Benchmarking evaluates and identifies the products, services and work processes of similar or competing organizations that are recognized as best-in-class and then applies these best practices to its own operations. The process of benchmarking involves a performance comparison of your organization with these best-in-class organizations.

The goal of Benchmarking is to find examples of outstanding performance and then understand the processes and practices that drive that performance. Your organization can then improve its performance by incorporating these best practices into your own operations through innovation and customizing the practices to fit your unique environment.
