Baldrige Award Winners AT&T’s Three Priorities for Quality • First, to step up their efforts to have the best quality in the world. • Second, to keep striving for an operating style and behavior that focused more sharply on customer needs. • Third, to continue to develop into a truly global corporation.

  23. Baldrige Award Winners “We listen, we learn, and we act constantly so that the quality of our products and services will keep improving.” Globe Metallurgical, Inc.

  24. Baldrige Award Winners Total Quality is “performance leadership in meeting customer requirements by doing the right things right the first time. We’ve developed a culture where employees involved in quality are the norm. The Total Quality attitude is so pervasive that it’s those who don’t participate who are the exception. Westinghouse Electric

  25. Baldrige Award Winners Leadership through quality was a long-term process meant to change the way our people worked and managed so they could continuously improve the way they met the requirements of the customers. The Baldrige process is valuable because it forces you to look at your company the way the customer sees it - not the way you think it is. Xerox

I think companies will take it seriously, use it primarily as a tool for improvement, and work hard to reap tremendous benefits in a short period of time. Granite Rock
