National Initiative for Service Excellence NISE Inc
|
NISE is at the forefront of a nationwide effort to help Barbados consistently deliver service excellence and be recognized internationally for this.
The National Initiative for Service Excellence (NISE) was established in 2005 by the Social Partners (the Trade Unions, the Private Sector and Government) for the people of Barbados.
NISE is at the forefront of a nationwide effort to help Barbados consistently deliver service excellence and be recognized internationally for this.
In this way, an enabling environment will be created within which Barbados will be able to attain its vision of being a developed country by 2025.
In the last 20 years Barbados has transitioned from an agricultural-based economy to one where over 90% of the foreign exchange and over 85% of employment is derived from service industries, led by travel and tourism.
The Social Partners recognised that the delivery of service would be critical to the continued and sustained growth in the Barbadian economy and that the attainment of world-class excellence in both the quality of service and delivery of products was an imperative and thus NISE was established.
Created as the lead agency to guide and manage this transformation process, raise the quality of service provided and to allow Barbados to compete effectively at the world-class level, NISE places people at the core of this cultural change.
With a mission to promote and facilitate the achievement of sustainable excellence within organisations and to assist individuals in developing excellence as an ethic, NISE nurtures the ethic and practice of world-class service excellence as a key catalyst of national economic prosperity through these six supporting service transformation strategies:
1. Training & Development
2. Leadership For Change
3. Measurement and Benchmarking
4. Standards and Certification
5. Business Process Re-Engineering and...
6. Recognition Of Excellence
Led by the Chief Executive Officer Ms. Kim Tudor, NISE's programming strategy is being undertaken through a three-stage approach to national service excellence development:
Phase I: Building Excellence the Barbadian Way,
Phase II: Sustaining Excellence,
Phase III: Recognised for Excellence.
NISE's current programmes include:
Training and Development
» Open Enrollment Customer Service Training
» In-house Consultancy Training
» Sector-specific programmes e.g. Team Barbados Host for tourism frontline workers
» Taking Personal Responsibility for Service Excellence Workshop
» Mystery Shopping
Leadership Development
» Service Leadership Benchmarking Study Tour
» Leadership Conferences
Youth Development
» Orientation To Work Programme for school leavers and new entrants to the world of work.
» Budding Excellence Programme for primary school students
» Live Excellence, a valued based campaign targeting adults and youth
NISE is therefore viewed as one of the most important organisations assisting Barbados in creating a national culture of service excellence, seeking to mobilise what is best in the Barbadian character and values and channel these into improvement of service to each other, customers and visitors to its shores.
A 15-year target has been established as the acceptable minimum time period for the type of paradigm change necessary for an ethos of service excellence to develop.
A 9 member Board of Directors was established comprising three representatives of each arm of the Social Partnership, providing the structure to ensure that critical policies, influence and networks are available to execute the strategic plan and activities.
