7. Recognition Leadership How do senior leaders involve themselves in reward and recognition that re- enforces a high-performance work culture? When an employee (at any level) has brought an innovative idea, continuous improvement suggestion or simply has done an exceptional job a Senior leader can recognize individuals for outstanding performance utilizing the “Recognizing X – cellence” Process. This process can be initiated by any senior leader at anytime, this leader can be a Business Unit Leader or Corporate Leader. At the Corporate Office in Troy we have what is called the wall of “Recognizing X – cellence”. Employees that have been recognized are posted there.

8. High Performance Work Culture Leadership How do senior leaders create and re-enforce a high-performance work culture that embraces standard work, process maturity, and lean production techniques? The senior leaders lead by example. The Lean Model to the right illustrates X-Ray Industries High – Performance work Culture. To the left of the diagram you can see the Strategy, Execution of the Strategy, Initiatives, Performance Indicators.

9. High Performance Work Culture Leadership How do senior leaders create and re-enforce a high-performance work culture that embraces standard work, process maturity, and lean production techniques? The diagram to the right is a section right out of our Quality Manual. Nadcap Merit status is a process maturity indicator as well as a high performance indicator. The Senior Leaders promote 24 month merit status at all locations that are Nadcap accredited, we use the Nadcap Check sheets as a quarterly process audit to ensure compliance. This standard work process is written into the QMS and is monitored & measured during Quality audits.

10. Annual Award Recognition Leadership How do senior leaders involve themselves in reward and recognition that re- enforces a high-performance work culture? An annual Quality Award was developed in 2007 based on the Baldrige National Quality Criteria. The Business Unit Leaders completed sections 1 and 2 and the corresponding results categories. At the end of every year I did a desk audit and the conducted a sight visit based on the Baldrige Scorebook. The location with the highest score won. In 2011 the Award was change to the “Recognizing Excellence Award” to move away from a “Quality” Award into a Performance Excellence Award. 1 Leadership & 2 Strategic Planning became very aligned during this process. All locations learned and shared best practices.

11. High Performance Work Culture Leadership How do senior leaders create and re-enforce a high-performance work culture that embraces standard work, process maturity, and lean production techniques? Senior Leaders promote a high performance work culture by using a “Report Card” that outlines the criteria for what is called “Recognizing Excellence Award”. This process once called the “Quality Award” has eight objectives with very precise criteria 1.Safety 2.Quality 3.Delivery 4.Workforce Development 5.Continuous Improvement 6.Financials 7.Conversion

12. High Performance Work Culture Leadership How do senior leaders create and re-enforce a high-performance work culture that embraces standard work, process maturity, and lean production techniques? Above is an example of the “Report Card”, as you can see the criteria and performance definitions are clearly defined. This report card not only impacts the locations year end financial performance / incentives but also impacts the final results for the award. The award winner gets a plaque and a cookout that is done by the Director of Quality and the President of X-Ray Industries.

13. Two Way Communication Leadership How do senior leaders encourage frank, two-way communication throughout the organization? Senior leaders live to our Guiding Principles and all have an open door policy and are approachable by any member of the team at any level. In addition there is a process called “Voice of the Employee (VOE)” this is a random selection of employees that meet with an HR representative and their manager. The scope of these sessions are to gather information (suggestions) from the employees on process improvements, benefits, overall company health (financial & local customers) and how a manager can improve and grow. These items are tracked in the format shown below.
