Every year, TNCPE recognizes an individual who exemplifies
outstanding leadership in the pursuit of performance excellence.
Winners are dedicated to the
principles of the Criteria for Performance Excellence, have furthered performance improvement
beyond the boundaries of their organizations and are committed to the core values of the Tennessee
Center for Performance Excellence program.
In 2010, Dr. R. Michael Browder, CEO of Bristol Tennessee Essential Services received the award.
He was presented with the honor by the award's namesake, former Tennessee Governor Ned. R. McWherter.
Governor McWherter was integral to the formation of TNCPE in 1993.
Nominations for the Ned R. McWherter Leadership Award are solicited from TNCPE member
organizations. The award recipient is selected by the executive committee and confirmed by the full
board of directors. |
