The Essence of Excellence is MindSpring’s platform for strategic planning and vision work.

This program is a culmination of our 22 years of working with teams and individuals at highly functioning levels, crisis-driven behaviors, as well as dysfunctional circumstances and outcomes. One of the most fascinating dynamics we continue to witness is observing how talented, experienced, and good people create low-functioning teams that achieve less than desired outcomes. How and why does this occur?

To understand what excellence is, it is important to understand what it is not. This program guides the team into profiling how mediocrity is born, nurtured and perpetuated, and serves as a valuable lens in revealing the true essence of excellence and how to create it. Come learn the seven crucial dynamics of highly effective teams and map out how to implement them in your daily operations, relationships and team.

This is a working program, using much of the time to construct your model of excellence based on the seven dynamics and other resources. Through exercises and application sessions, you will design strategies for developing excellence, create your vision for years to come, as well as articulate the principles and behaviors that will allow that vision to be sustained.
