Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

climate change and resource depletion.
The National Strategy for Green Growth envisages three main objectives which are expected to be fulfilled in
the process of taking actions in accordance with ten policy directions. The three objectives and ten policy
directions are based on the consensus among the civil society, businesses, academia and government.
The first objective is to effectively deal with climate change and attain energy independence. Moving beyond
fossil fuels will help Korea to achieve energy independence and effectively mitigate greenhouse gas
emissions. This objective calls for actions such as setting mid- to long-term mitigation goals, increasing the
use of new and renewable energy sources, as well as efficient management
of demand for energy. Measures will be taken to strengthen the nation’s adaptation capacities to counter the
adverse impacts of climate change. These include improving the climate monitoring and forecasting abilities
and securing a stable supply of water resources, among others.
The second objective is to create new engines of growth on multiple fronts. This includes the development of
green technology, greening of industries, transition to a more advanced industrial structure, and laying the
groundwork for a green economy. Emphasis will be placed on increasing strategic investments in the R&D of
the green sector, development of green small and medium enterprises, cutting-edge convergence industry
and high value-added service industry, the creation of a national carbon emissions trading market, laying the
structure for green finance, and tax incentives for eco-friendly activities.
The third objective is to raise the overall quality of life for the people and to enhance the contributions to the
international community through strong advocacy for green growth. Efforts will be directed toward greening
the land and water and building a green transportation infrastructure. As a result, green vehicles will be more
widely utilized and bicycles will become the main means of city transportation. Campaigns will be conducted

invested firms that meet certain requirements. Land within four categories of zones is provided either free of
charge or at low cost: Stand-Alone-Type Foreign Investment Zones, Complex-Type Foreign Investment Zones,
Free Trade Zones and Free Economic Zones.

beneficial factors. Tax and customs tariff reductions, as well as other forms of financial support, may apply if
certain conditions are met.

infrastructure within a Foreign Investment Zone or to enhance the living environment within it. Aid under this
program is currently extended to companies in which the foreign equity stake is at least 30% or in which a
foreign company or individual investor is the largest shareholder.
