No matter the kind of business you run or the people on your team, it is worth investing in a high-performance culture. 

Organizations that are focused on high performance see massive improvements in sales, quality, and customer satisfaction, all while improving employee retention and motivation.

Here is how: 

Minimize meetings

Reduce meetings down to the minimum viable number, so top talent can spend their time on more interesting, impactful work. 

Measure motivation

Ask questions to measure your team’s motivation and conduct monthly health checks. Teams that measure motivation can have a blameless, action-oriented conversation about how to improve. This allows high performers to take ownership, facilitate problem-solving, and build a team culture that’s worth sticking around for.

Mentor high performers on concrete, high-leverage skills

Many high performers leave because they no longer feel they are growing in their role. Anchor performance and development conversations with these employees around concrete skills that you believe will increase performance. This shifts the mindset from evaluation on past actions to learning for the future.
