Helping individuals, organizations, and communities improve performance and achieve excellence.
A community focused on achieving excellence together
Any organization, community, or professional can — and should — improve. After all, in today’s complex & ever-changing world, if you’re not moving forward, you’re slipping backward.
The Performance Excellence Network (PEN) helps you improve your results. We help leaders identify & prioritize improvement opportunities using evidence-based, validated assessments. And we broker resources, information and best practices through a portfolio of learning events and other service offerings. We work with all sizes & types of organizations and communities in the Upper Midwest. And we would love to help you and your team reach higher performance.
