OUR APPROACHA peak performing executive team is a group of top managers who possess the ability and willingness to achieve together impressive results, not just once or twice, but repeatedly and consistently. Our findings about high performance teams are based on more than twenty-five years of experience, observation and analysis. As a matter of fact, we helped develop highly effective management teams in different cultures throughout the world, in the private sector as well as in the public arena.Looking at these high performance teams, assessing why and how they perform at their best, we discovered that:
On one hand, they do not consist of geniuses but of “ordinary” people.On the other hand, they have common traits which make them unique in making high performance possible in a consistent way.
If a top executive is looking for high performance from his/her management team, he/she should identify and understand these common traits and then make sure that they are fully endorsed by the team.He/she should also manage himself/herself in a way to be perceived as a model by all members of the organization. How?Providing a full-fledged answer to this question is precisely the objective of this workshop.
