The World's Best Business Excellence Library is being made here. It carries not just the definition of the excellence term (what is done by a Glossary/ Dictionary) but also provides the answer to a very important application question on the topic. Wish to be a part of the initiative? Join us now! The open questions and past questions with best answers can be seen here.
