Great results depend on ordinary people performing at extraordinary levels. It’s the Holy Grail of management—human performance. Yet what do we really mean by the word? How can we encourage more of it? And what are the latest advances that can enable your company to grow—even in the midst of turbulent and challenging times? Up until very recently, human beings didn’t know that much about human performance. “Focus on your employees’ strengths,” the mantra goes. That’s great if you want to simply make people happier and a bit more productive, but how do you actually inspire your team to perform at its highest capacity possible, consistently—and over time? That’s where recent breakthroughs in what we call “human performance technology” come in. Think of it as the next-level, high-speed racing car that hasn’t made it on to the market yet but is giving the elite drivers of the world an unfair advantage over the competition over and over again. When you begin to apply to your own company or team, you’ll find that you start creating explosive growth, because everyone is aligned around a common mission and vision, and all of your systems are actually beginning to work. It may sound hyperbolic, but our experience tells us that it’s absolutely true.
