Great Public Safety Organizations
Don’t Get the Recognition They Deserve

It shouldn’t be so expensive for your team to be recognized for excellence.

Without recognition, your team’s exceptional results are invisible at budget time.

Striving for excellence stops feeling worth it when funding shrinks.

A Better Approach to Public Safety Recognition

For 30+ years, I’ve helped hundreds of public safety leaders improve performance and earn the recognition they deserve. Many have won local, state, national, and international awards for excellence.

But I could have helped hundreds more if traditional awards weren’t so expensive, complicated, and subjective. We created the Baldrige Excellence Foundation to make public safety recognition affordable, simple, and objective for every public safety department.

Three Steps to Role Model Recognition

Step 1
Schedule Free Call

We will identify your award category — customer service, workforce engagement, or operational excellence — and the performance measure you’ll be recognized for.

Step 3
We Gather the Data

We contact 60 similar-sized departments in your state and build your peer benchmark — work that would take your team months.

Step 3
Become a Role Model

Departments in the top 30% of the 60 peer benchmarks, are recognized as role model organizations for excellence in your state.

What Role Model Recognition Gives your Organization

  • Turn Excellence Into Leverage. Recognition gives you the objective evidence to win budget fights, defend resources, and earn the trust of elected officials and the public — third-party proof that your department performs in the top tier of your state.
  • Give Your Team the Recognition They Deserve. A Role Model badge identifying your department as a top performer in your state — proudly displayed on your website, letterhead, and business cards.
  • Join the Role Models Setting the Standard. Recognition places your department in an elite group of public safety leaders performing in the top tier of their state — peers who share the same commitment to excellence and a place other departments in your profession look up to.

Traditional recognition programs don’t work for leaders because they require:

  • Lengthy application that take months to prepare.
  • Extensive documentation leaders have to collect.
  • Prescriptive process forces leaders into one model.
  • Subjective judging panels instead of objective results.
  • Significant costs & staff time just to participate.

For leaders like you, traditional recognition programs are too complicated.
