Performance Leadership

Are you building a typical team...or a high-performance tribe? The motivational power of the desire to belong is the key element for ensuring employee satisfaction and retention, as well as your company’s long-term success.

We live in a new world where work and life are blended as opposed to balanced, and feelings of financial security and entitlement are a thing of the past. Job satisfaction is at a record low, a crisis with far-reaching impact. For businesses, a disengaged workforce means lower levels of productivity and service, and ultimately lower growth and profits. For individuals, our emotions at work spill over to the other areas of our lives and take a toll on our health and relationships.

This book presents a holistic approach to performance management, encompassing both personal performance and the development of a learning organization. I hope it supports you on your performance journey.

The book is a toolkit for self-exploration, analysis, learning and action plan development framed in a 5-week programme for building your unique sales self.

¿Cómo pueden los CEO de hoy sacar más provecho de sus equipos? Actuando más como CBO (‘chief behavioral officers’, o directores de comportamiento): adoptando prácticas de liderazgo positivo, diseñando buenas experiencias para los empleados y proporcionando formación en comportamiento. Después de todo, el capital humano es la clave para lograr los objetivos financieros.

After years of having motivational smoke blown up our collective backsides, we've started to act as if we are all generous, bold, and intelligent - all of the time! We've designed our organizations, teams, systems, products, relationships, and lives so we can succeed only under ideal 'laboratory' conditions. Anything less than perfection often means catastrophe. The problem is that's not how human beings work at all.

Bénéfice secondaire, la joie n'est pas seulement le carburant principal du bonheur, c'est aussi un facteur de performance individuelle et collective. Le mot "travail" vient de tripalium, instrument de torture. Le travail est souvent valorisé par sa pénibilité : si on a bavé, c'est que c'est bien. À mille lieux de cette approche classique et même antique, Hervé Franceschi nous montre que la bonne humeur, la joie, l'humour ne se contentent pas d'alléger le pesant fardeau du travail plus ou moins contraint, ils ouvrent le chemin si recherché et méconnu d'une performance durable.

Cet aphorisme que le regretté Francis Blanche n'aurait pas démenti - lui qui voulait "penser le changement" plutôt que "changer le pansement" - place la performance commerciale dans sa juste perspective. Juste au sens de la justesse. Éric Vérin, qui a déroulé du câble sur le sujet dont il traite ici, situe chaque étape de la vente dans le contrepoint des étapes de l'achat.

In Top Performer, you'll meet Jim, a disciplined but uninspired sales manager. In London, on vacation, (his first in years) he meets Top Hat. In an engrossing conversation, Top Hat tells him about a legendary Dublin busker/street performer called the Rat Catcher, who engages his audience and effortlessly charms them into parting easily with their change. Top Hat then gives Jim an envelope to bring to the Rat Catcher as a form of introduction. Jim is incredulous, and even a bit suspicious.

There's been a lot of talk recently about metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs). But, what does it all mean? Metrics can mean everything, or they can mean nothing. I know what you're thinking. "I started my insurance agency so I could pore through mounds of data and spend hours looking over spreadsheets," said no one ever! That's why I wrote the book.

In Nucleon, Jeppe Hedaa introduces the first formula to measure what holds back an organization's IT performance, along with the most impactful areas for improvement.
