Overview
Is your company under appreciated? Are you? Do customers overlook the great work your company does?
Then, the Paradox of Excellence concept is for you.
Over the last 20 years, many organizations have implemented continuous improvement and customer intimacy initiatives in a quest for sustained market leadership - to become organizations of lasting value. However, during the same time, customer loyalty has plunged to all-time lows and shareholder value has become more volatile than at any other time in history. Companies who have successfully implemented these improvement initiatives are not getting the expected value from them, but instead become more invisible because of them. It's a paradox, what we call the Paradox of
Excellence(tm)
This concept is for anyone or any organization striving not only to be of value, but also to be valued - in any aspect of his or her profession or personal life.
