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.

Description
The one who needs rescuing isn t always the one in the tower. Rapunzel can throw a knife better than any man. She paints
beautiful flowering vines on the walls of her plaster houses. She sings so sweetly she can coax even a beast to sleep. But
there are two things she is afraid her mother might never allow her to do: learn to read and marry. Fiercely devoted to
Rapunzel, her mother is suspicious of every man who so much as looks at her daughter and warns her that no man can be
trusted. After a young village farmer asks for Rapunzel s hand in marriage, Mother decides to move them once again-this
time, to the large city of Hagenheim. The journey proves treacherous, and after being rescued by a knight-Sir Gerek-Rapunzel
in turn rescues him farther down the road. As a result, Sir Gerek agrees to repay his debt to Rapunzel by teaching her to read.
Could there be more to this knight than his arrogance and desire to marry for riches and position? As Rapunzel acclimates to
life in a new city, she uncovers a mystery that will forever change her life. In this Rapunzel story unlike any other, a world of
secrets and treachery is about to be revealed after seventeen years of lies. How will Rapunzel finally take control of her own
destiny? And who will prove faithful to a lowly peasant girl with no one to turn to? "The Golden Braid is a delightful, page-
turning retelling of the story of Rapunzel. Dickerson brings this familiar fairy tale to life with a fresh and unique plot that is full
of complex characters, a sweet romance, and danger at every turn. Rapunzel s search to understand her place in the medieval
world is a timeless identity struggle that modern readers will relate to. Her growing courage and faith are inspirational and will
have readers cheering her on and sad to see the story come to an end." -Jody Hedlund, bestselling author of An Uncertain
Choice
