It's not often that we have a chance to learn from another generation, but there's something so valuable about learning from someone with more and different life experiences. Mr. Schulze is an author (of \"Excellence Wins\"), speaker, and consultant across industries. \n\nWe dive deep into the meaning of excellence and how that translates into our daily work. We also discuss organizational values and how to pass those down to the team as a whole. This interview brought on some great debate for our team! We talked about the allure and appreciation of excellence vs the cost of pursuing it. One question we are asking here at Plywood: How can we as a nonprofit create moments of excellence through our coworking space, our programming, our events, and more?"}
