"We are
developing a high performance, achievement-based culture.
Without this methodology, I would expect us to be behind our
competitors.”

Rob Coombe | CEO | BT Financial
"It is often difficult
to unify a leadership team on improving the performance within
a business. The high performance environment process provided
powerful yet easily understood information on the factors effecting
performance at Cisco. This process unified my team on the specific
actions to improve performance."
Gerard
Lithgow | VP Enterprise Sales North East USA | Cisco
"The high performance diagnostic facilitated
clarity on what actions needed to be taken in order to improve
the performance of my team and why these actions would have the
greatest impact. Importantly the process unified my senior
executive team around these actions.”
Charlie Brown | Senior Executive | Accenture
“Given your unique circumstances, what “MOVE”,
made today, will have the greatest effect on the performance of
your organization or team?”
Did you know that there are over 70 possible management
actions available to an
executive at any given time that can significantly change performance? It is no
wonder why many companies get lost in and frustrated by impractical
theories and expensive consultants trying to make sense of it all.
Based on over 16 years of
high performance research
with elite institutions such as Harvard, the U.S. Special Forces, Cisco,
Accenture, MIT, NASA, and Juilliard, we can help you identify the
top two moves necessary to drive high performance. Our clients
tell us that our practical and action-oriented approach provides
clarity and structure while producing measurable
results.
Those clients around the world with whom we have
worked to identify and execute these high performance actions tell
us that they have:
-
Increased factory productivity by 25%
-
Gained over $500,000 in annual benefits
-
Improved net profit contribution by $100,000 per
month
-
Raised Call
Center revenue by 400%
Typically clients turn to LSA's High Performance
Environment Diagnostic, Consulting, and Training to:
-
Understand how to "get more" from their people
-
Determine how to best execute their strategy
from a "people perspective"
-
Identify the best "moves" to get their
organization to realize its stretch objectives
-
Benchmark their current performance environment
against high performance best practices
-
Increase leadership accountability for
performance improvement
-
Understand, in detail, the dynamics affecting
human high performance in their organization or team
After an initial education
session, our usual approach
involves 4 key steps:
- Diagnose:
Understand the existing performance environment
using our proven High Performance Environmental Structure
Diagnostic Tool.
The diagnostic enables leaders to quickly build a detailed
picture of the current performance environment and accurately pinpoint
key levers to improve performance.
Typical
outcomes include identifying:
-
Strengths and weaknesses of the current culture /
performance environment
-
Likely accelerators and inhibitors to performance
-
Current and future ‘pressure’ dynamics that will most
influence performance
-
Benchmark comparisons
- Strategize the Two Key
Moves:
Review the diagnostic results with the Leader and the Executive
Team and agree on the two key actions that, if taken, will
result in the most dramatic improvement in performance across
the organization.
- Execute:
Implement the two actions in a way that makes sense to your
organization.
- Measure:
Re-test to monitor progress against success metrics and to
continuously improve.
