The Operational Excellence Society is a "think tank"; a grass-roots organization that emerged the Operational Excellence LinkedIn Group, the largest group of that genre by far, started by Joseph Paris.  The society is staffed and managed by volunteers and has no dues or membership fees. As the name implies, the society is dedicated to change agents who embrace the ideals of Operational Excellence, defined as the continuous and deliberate improvement of company performance AND the circumstances of those who work there — and working towards becoming a "High-Performance Organization". Members of the Operational Excellence Society — from seasoned practitioners to the newly curious — are united by an interest in sustainable and deliberate improvement and the enhancement of overall quality and value throughout the value chain during the pursuit of perfection. To that end, we have established rigorous,"best in class", enducation and training system that follows a prescriptive approach for building capacity and capability for strategy deployment across the enterprise — a foundational system for helping to create a corporate culture where Operational Excellence is the norm: The Operational Excellence Enterprise Readiness System. The society is open to all comers and those interested including: Professionals who coach individuals and conduct training companies End users who have demonstrated the ability to deploy programs Educators who develop and deploy curricula For more information, please contact Joseph Paris at Joseph.Paris@opexsociety.org
