Assessment of a Best Practice – the goal is to achieve excellent results.
The BEST method is a structured approach to describe a process that performs at an excellent level. The BEST method uses a tool which is a series of checklists (free download: Excel-tables) enabling the reader to assess his Best Practice or as a guideline for writing a Best Practice. There are two tools: the BEST tool (a detailed checklist consisting of 4 Excel segments) and the BEST Quick Scan (a summary of the BEST tool in one checklist). Both tools are described in detail in this book, authored by Yves Van Nuland and Grace L. Duffy.
