What is Excellence?

The word ‘excellence’ is so overused that it has taken on a glitz that it didn’t have 20 years ago. It implies over to top quality…lots of high gloss polish…best of the best.

Is that really it?

I’d rather think about excellence as being:

Exactly fitting a need or creating a whole new way of achieving something…

Without waste…

Aesthetically pleasing…

Non-toxic now and in the future…

Durable…

Relationship building or sustaining.

How do you define excellence?
