19.Jul.2010 Excellence and Service

Don’t know a lot about Tom Peters . . . but found and like this quote . . .

EXCELLENCE. Always.

If not EXCELLENCE, what?

If not EXCELLENCE now, when?

EXCELLENCE is not an “aspiration.”

EXCELLENCE is not a “journey.”

EXCELLENCE is the next five minutes.

Organizations exist to serve. Period.

Leaders exist to serve. Period.

Service is a beautiful word.

Service is a beautiful word. Service is character, community, commitment. (And profit.)

Service is a beautiful word. Service is not “Wow.” Service is not “raving fans.” Service is not “an experience.” Service is “just” that—SERVICE.
