2009 Examiners as Ambassadors
This section is a resource for members of the 2009 Board of Examiners.
 
Your role as an ambassador is vital to the outreach efforts of the Baldrige Program. You, as Examiner ambassadors, complement the efforts of our Baldrige staff, and you lend valuable credibility within your industries, sectors, and communities.
 
This Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document provides you with information on the ambassador role, including information on those whom we want to reach, how you can reach them, and tools and resources available to assist you. It also provides general guidance on the role and contact information for the Baldrige Program’s Outreach and Communications Team.
 
We thank you for your support of our outreach efforts and look forward to working with you during the coming year.
