Join this interactive panel of experts to...

​

  • Hear new research about how Baldrige impacts clinical, operational, financial, and market metrics for hospitals, regardless of whether the hospital has received the national Baldrige award or not;

​

  • Learn how organizations are managing their “Excellence Journeys” through the pandemic; and

​

  • Engage in interactive dialogue with a 2020 Baldrige National Quality Award winner as they share their successes, lessons learned, and ongoing challenges.
