Tim Larkins is the Founder and CEO of E5Xcellence
Tim Larkins has more than two decades of professional experience in service-related industries, including healthcare, business associations and education. He has won the prestigious Summit Award for Service Excellence Program Director of the Year and led his team to an unprecedented sweep of five national awards at the HealthCare Service Excellence Conference.
Trophies aside, Tim believes that the true reward of his work lies in changing hearts and minds. He is a passionate champion of Service Excellence, and his goal with every engagement is inspiring others to share in that vision.
Tim knows firsthand that can be a tough sell. As a financial executive at Laurens County Health Care System, he lobbied for a Service Excellence Initiative where two previous attempts had failed within 6 months. The board was divided, staff was cynical and physicians were openly hostile.
