Businesses small and large are focusing too much on inspiration and not enough on execution. Although passion and desire to succeed are essential to achieving our full potential in business, they aren't adequate on their own. If efforts to motivate employees aren't supported by a firm groundwork of organizational success, the efforts will be short lived at best--like trying to hang paintings on the walls of a house with no foundation. In Peak Performance Culture: The Five Metrics of Organizational Excellence, Dave Mitchell teaches readers how to build the bones of achievement in any organization. Through the course of his career as a leading corporate trainer, and drawing on research in cognitive psychology and other fields, Mitchell has uncovered five keys to success that form the framework of a Peak Performance Culture. Yet many top businesses are not exploiting these success factors, and are not performing at their highest potential. Implementing the techniques in this book in a systemic fashion will take readers from modest success (if they are lucky enough to have attained it) to truly stellar results. With practical checklists, discussion ideas, and action steps, this book provides readers with a roadmap to implementing and monitoring the five keys to business success. Mitchell's unique framework breaks down high-level concepts like leadership ideology and customer experience into measurable actions that can be put into effect right away. By tracking these five metrics, organizations can begin to create a culture, not just of day-to-day accomplishment, but of excellence from top to bottom.
