Excellence is a choice – and it’s nonnegotiable
What separates average from excellent, common from uncommon, and fitting in from standing out? It’s not talent, luck, or circumstance. It’s the daily commitment to nonnegotiable – the core values that drive consistent success.
In this expanded and updated second edition of Working Toward Excellence, author and speaker Dr. Paul Buyer presents ten essential nonnegotiables for achieving uncommon success in work and life. Drawing on lessons from high performers across business, sports, education, and the arts, Dr. Buyer delivers a clear, actionable framework that inspires individuals and teams to aim higher and achieve more.
Packed with fresh insights, new research, and powerful stories – including two brand-new nonnegotiables: Simplicity and Sacrifice – this edition shows why, in a world obsessed with doing more, often secret is doing less – but doing it with focus and purpose.
