In this insightful conversation with sports psychologist Stuart M. Singer, PsyD, M.Ed we explore a powerful truth: teams achieve greatness when individual and collective performance are equally prioritized. For teams to win, every member must strive to be their best, AND the team as a whole must operate at a high level. It’s not about choosing one over the other—both are essential, and together, they drive success. Stu brings lessons from the world of elite sports to show how leaders can foster environments where individuals thrive and teams excel. Whether you're leading in sports, business, or beyond, this perspective can transform how you think about performance and resilience. ?? How do you ensure your team strikes this balance? Let’s discuss below! #Leadership #Teamwork #HighPerformance #Resilience #HighPeaksGroup #SportsPsychology --- At High Peaks Group, we believe resilience is the key to success in today’s fast-changing business environment. Our approach focuses on empowering leaders, strengthening teams, fostering vibrant cultures, and aligning systems for the future. We want to spread the word about creating resilient organizations.

I recently had a great conversation with sports psychologist Stuart M. Singer, PsyD, M.Ed where we explored performance through the lens of business and sports. So many parallels. We both have seen so many teams and companies spend too much time fixing what's broken which leaves too much innovation and potential on the table. Optimizing performance without a clear and compelling vision for the future is just rearranging deck chairs. The research confirms our experience: Research by David Cooperrider and others demonstrates that focusing on what works well in an organization helps amplify strengths, leading to more engaged employees and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Kim Cameron and others looked at what makes organizations thrive. They found that organizations fostering positive practices, such as emphasizing strengths and building on success, lead to higher levels of performance and resilience. Gallup’s research shows that strengths-based organizations outperform those that focus on fixing weaknesses in metrics like profit, customer satisfaction, and employee well-being. Carol Dweck's research on growth mindset indicates that fostering an environment where potential and development are prioritized leads to higher performance and innovation. Research by Amy Edmondson on psychological safety also suggests that when organizations adopt a positive framing and encourage employees to focus on opportunities for growth and innovation, teams are more likely to take the risks necessary for improvement and change. This sense of safety and focus on strengths leads to better collaboration, creativity, and resilience. *** ?? High Peaks Group builds resilient organizations for the future.

?? Leadership: we all want it, but we all complain about it. Maybe that's because we don't talk enough about the reality of leadership. New leaders often struggle because their experience is so different from what they thought it'd be. It's far more complex, nuanced, and impersonal than they imagined. I recently polled a dozen or so leaders and asked what they wished they knew about leadership before they took on their new role. They came up with 5 very honest takes on what it's really like to be a leader.
