I have my doubts, at least in the long term. Success leads to growth which
leads to calcification.

That was very popular in the '80s. Consultants would give training
sessions, one of which I had to sit through. Many of the companies thaey
used as examples of excellent corporate culture are no more. Some, like
Hewlett Packard, are classics in corporate devolution.

fwiw, the company I worked for at the times didn't find excellence either
and is gone. Come to think of it every company I ever worked for directly
or on contract is gone. Maybe I'm the kiss of death?
I doubt it. The word "excellence" tripped my bullshit detectors the first
time I heard it, and I've seen nothing since to make me change my mind.
It's been turned into just another management buzzword.
