What's IN With High-Performance Weirdos?©

INitiatives for Creating a High-Performance Organization in the Age of the Individual

Organizations must be able to make distinctions (i.e., discriminate) between weird behavior rooted in high-performance and that which is just annoying; but that is only the first step. A more proactive strategy is to learn how to actually "design" organizations around the common needs and values of high-performers in general. To create a self-sustaining culture that attracts, retains and motivates only the best and the brightest, you need to understand.

What's IN With High-Performers?

This is one of John's most requested sessions, because it takes the principles of his philosophies and translates them into actual workplace initiatives, and has been presented to such organizations as the Society for Human Resource Management, The High-Technology Council Conference on Human Capital, the Employment Management Association, and many others.

Within each of the five needs, John presents five INitiatives that are necessary to satisfy each need. So you will go away with a total of 25 concepts from which you can design your own culture of high-performance weirdos.

Like all of John's programs, this one is cutting-edge, pragmatic and to-the-point.
