  7. Journey to Excellence helps you get there. It brings: • A framework for planning for your year • A method for evaluating your crew • Assessment of how you’re doing in the key areas found in great Crews • Guidance in areas where you might do better • Specific guidelines and standards of what is good performance • Early warning of potential problem areas • Recognition for your good performance • Benchmarking to get ideas and tips from other good Crews

  8. You assess your performance in key areas including • Activities • Youth Leadership • Service Projects • Training • Membership • Retention • Budget In each area, your youth leaders and Advisors rate your performance against specific standards Gold, Silver, Bronze or did not meet minimum standard And did you show improvement? You make your rating as part of your charter renewal

  9. Emphasis of Journey to Excellence Continuous Improvement is a Goal • Did your Crew do measurably better in key areas than last year? • OR are you already performing at a high level in those areas? Either way, you can qualify for the standard

  10. Emphasis of Journey to Excellence • Program and Participation in Unit (Membership) are most important factors • Administrative factors are considered • Factors which are early indicators of Crew strength and health are identified and assessed

  11. Here’s an Example Activities: The crew has regular activities throughout the year reflecting the interests of the youth members. Bronze – Have carried out at least four activities. 100 points Silver – Have carried out at least five activities. – 200 points Gold – Have carried out at least six activities. – 400 points

  12. Here’s another Example Youth leadership: The crew has elected youth leaders who are leading the crew activities. Bronze – Have an elected president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer, and they are leading the activities of the crew. 75 points Silver – 50% of the youth participate in Introduction to Leadership Skills for Crews (ILSC)course. 150 points Gold – 70% of youth participate in Introduction to Leadership Skills for Crews course. 300 points

  13. How is your overall rating determined? • You receive points in each of the categories Gold, Silver, Bronze or no rating (no points) • Your total points are added to give your total score • Requirements are weighted as they correlate most with success receiving the most points • No one requirement is mandatory • Your total score determines your overall rating For 2011 troops: Gold is 1600, Silver is 1000, Bronze is 700 • Journey to Excellence assessment is made at the time of your rechartering

  14. Implementation Timing

  15. Recognition • Crews with a satisfactory performance receive the “Bronze” level of recognition • On a voluntary basis, units which do better than satisfactory receive higher recognition • “Silver” level - Effective Performance • “Gold” level - Excellent Performance • Recognition items will include a ribbon, plaque and patches for the uniform

  16. Here’s how you might calculate the points for a typical Crew Bronze Silver Gold • Activities 100 200 400 • Building Venturing 75 150 300 • Retention 75 150 300 • Youth Leadership 75 150 300 • Service Projects 75 150 300 • Trained Leadership 75 150 300 • Super Activity 75 150 300 • Parent’s Meetings 25 50 100 • Budget 25 50 100 • Re-register On Time 50 • Annual Assessment 50 SUM 325 400 400 Bronze is earned because the Crew achieved at least 9 of 11 requirements. Total of 1125 points. Since Silver is 1000 and Gold is 1600, this Crew qualifies for the Silver award

  17. You get Early Warning of Potential Problems • The form has several requirements shown to be leading indicators of performance • The more important the requirement, the higher point value it has • You can be alerted if these requirements become negative and take early action to head off more severe problems

  18. There is incentive for Continuous Improvement • Better Performance means better Scouting for youth! • Better Performance can earn a higher level of Recognition • Key requirements are tracked and improvement can be quickly identified • Your Council and District can help you find units at the Gold level in areas where you need help • You may be able to give help in your Gold areas

  19. Requirement Standards Change Each Year • Each year, the requirements will be reconsidered to reflect the improved performance by units • New standards for 2012 will likely be announced in early 2012 • Performance for 2011 will determine the 2012 standards, so 2011 data will need to be collected and analyzed • A Silver performance for 2011 might only rate Bronze in 2012
