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.

77. The History of Canada’s
Constitution
One of the most important early
Canadian constitutional
documents was the British North
America Act 1867.
By this act the colonies of
Canada (Ontario and Quebec)
were united with the colonies of
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
80. Two sections of this act listed
the powers of the central
government and the provinces.
Section 91 - listed the powers of
the central or federal
government.
Section 92 - listed the powers of
the provinces.
83. The Statute of
Westminster 1931
By this British law Canada
became a self governing
dominion.
This meant that laws passed by
the Canadian government could
not be overturned by Britain.
It also meant that British law no
longer applied in Canada.
84. Constitutional
Patriation 1982
To patriate means to
bring home.
The process required
that the British
government revoke
the BNA Act of 1867.
It further required
that Canada enact its
own written
constitution.
85. What problems were
faced by the Trudeau
government?
Federal-Provincial agreement in
Canada.
A formula to amend the
constitution.
The Charter of Rights and
Freedoms.
86. Federal-Provincial
Disagreement
The provinces and the
central government had
difficulty finding any
common ground to achieve
Mr. Trudeau’s goal of a
patriated constitution.
The political leaders of
each province wanted to
ensure that new
constitutional
arrangements were
advantageous to them.
87. The Charter of Rights
and Freedoms
Mr. Trudeau wanted an entrenched
Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
89. Aboriginal Rights
“The existing
aboriginal and treaty
rights of the aboriginal
peoples of Canada are
hereby recognized…”
For many aboriginal
people this was
insufficient.
90. Fundamental
Freedoms (s.2)
Freedom of conscience and religion
Freedom of belief and expression
Freedom of association
Freedom of peaceful assembly
The provinces feared that these were too
broad and as a result they were limited by the
notwithstanding clause of section 33. of the
Charter.
91. Democratic
Rights (ss. 3-5)
The right to vote
The right to run for elected office
Elections are to be called once every five
years.
Parliament and legislatures must sit once in
every 12 months.
92. Mobility Rights
(s. 6)
The right to leave and to
return to Canada
The right to move anywhere in
Canada to live and work
Reasonable residency is
required for access to social
services and permanent
residents in need could be
given assistance first.
Provinces cannot limit the right
of non residents to own
property.
93. Legal Rights (ss. 7-
14)
“the right to life, liberty
and the security of the
person”
This limits the power of
government to detain or to
deny people basic liberty
except “in accordance with
principles of fundamental
justice.”
Legal rights can be limited
by the
“notwithstanding” clause of section 33
.
94. Legal Rights II
Arbitrary arrest is not allowed.
Police cannot unreasonably
search any person.
You must be informed of the
reason for your arrest.
You must be informed of your
right to retain a lawyer.
95. Legal Rights III
You must be informed of your
offense.
You must be tried in a
reasonable time.
You are presumed innocent
until found guilty by the
courts.
You cannot be denied
reasonable bail.
You cannot be forced to give
evidence against yourself.
96. Equality Rights (s.
15) You have legal equality
regardless of race, national or
ethnic origin, colour, religion,
sex, age, mental or physical
disability.
Affirmative action programs do
allow special treatment for
those who are disadvantaged.
These rights may be limited by
the
“notwithstanding” provisions of s
.
97. Language Rights (ss.
16-22)
The bilingual status of Canada is
recognized.
The equality of French and
English in Parliament is
confirmed.
Federal agencies must provide
services in both French and
English.

(s. 23)
These apply only to Canadian citizens
and not new immigrants.
English or French speaking minorities
can have their children educated in
their own language.
It must be the parents first language.
Provinces need only provide minority
language schools where there are
sufficient numbers to justify the cost.
Editor's Notes
Elizabeth I (1533–1603), by
George Gower, ca. 1588 In
this “Armada Portrait” of Queen
Elizabeth I, the artist proclaims
her the Empress of the World.
She was accused of being vain,
fickle, prejudiced, and miserly,
but Elizabeth proved to be an
unusually successful ruler. She
never married (hence, the
“Virgin Queen”), although many
romances were rumored and
royal matches schemed.

Sir Walter Ralegh (Raleigh) (ca. 1552–1618), 1588
A dashing courtier who was one of Queen Elizabeth’s
favorites for his wit, good looks, and courtly manners, he
launched important colonizing failures in the New World.
For this portrait, Raleigh presented himself as the queen’s
devoted servant, wearing her colors of black and white and
her emblem of a pearl in his left ear. After seducing (and
secretly marrying) one of Queen Elizabeth’s maids of
honor, he fell out of favor but continued his colonial
ventures in the hopes of challenging Catholic Spain’s
dominance in the Americas. He was ultimately beheaded
for treason.

Map 2.3 Iroquois Lands and European Trade Centers, ca. 1590–1650
Map 5.1 Immigrant Groups in 1775 America was already
a nation of diverse nationalities in the colonial period. This
map shows the great variety of immigrant groups, especially
in Pennsylvania and New York. It also illustrates the tendency
of later arrivals, particularly the Scots-Irish, to push into the
backcountry.
Map 5.2 The Colonial economy By the eighteenth century, the various colonial regions had distinct economic identities. The northern colonies grew grain and raised cattle, harvested timber and fish, and built ships. The Chesapeake colonies and North Carolina were still heavily dependent on tobacco, whereas the southernmost colonies grew mostly rice and indigo. Cotton, so important to the southern economy in the nineteenth century, had not yet emerged as a major crop.
A South Carolina Advertisement for Slaves in the
1760s Note the reference to these slaves’ origin on West
Africa’s “Rice Coast,” a reminder of South Carolina’s reliance
on African skill and labor for rice cultivation. Note, too, that
half the slaves were said to have survived smallpox and
thus acquired immunity from further infection—and that
care had been taken to insulate the others from a smallpox
epidemic apparently then raging in Charleston.

the beaver for more than two centuries over the entire continent of North America.
They brought many Indians for the first time into contact with white culture.
Washington and
Jefferson Compared,
1807 This pro-
Federalist, anti-Jefferson
cartoon accuses Jefferson
of sympathizing with
French Revolutionary
despotism.
Map 11.1 Presidential Election of 1800 (with electoral
vote by state) New York was the key state in this election,
and Aaron Burr helped swing it away from the Federalists
with tactics that anticipated the political “machines” of a later
day. Federalists complained that Burr “travels every night
from one meeting of Republicans to another, haranguing . . .
them to the most zealous exertions. [He] can stoop so low as
to visit every low tavern that may happen to be crowded with
his dear fellow citizens.” But Burr proved that the price was
worth it. “We have beat you,” Burr told kid-gloved Federalists
after the election, “by superior Management.”
Map 11.3 Exploring the Louisiana Purchase and the West Seeking to avert friction
with France by purchasing all of Louisiana, Jefferson bought trouble because of the
vagueness of the boundaries. Among the disputants were Spain in the Floridas, Spain and
Mexico in the Southwest, and Great Britain in Canada.
Questions For Discussion
1. Why would the government of British Columbia be reluctant to see large numbers of unemployed Canadians arrive in Vancouver and Victoria during the winter months?
2. Does the wording of this section allow provinces to deny social assistance to migrant workers?
Notes:
This has been a recent problem in B.C. where a three month waiting period was imposed before social assistance could be collected by newly arrived unemployed citizens. The federal government challenged B.C.s position as unreasonable and the province eventually backed down.
