Have you ever wondered how you could measure your team's performance differently than with business indicators and all the traditional KPIs that you have put in place ?
If yes, you have certainly already given a thought to what it is that is missing in your team, project or organization, that comes from the people. What is holding the business back ? Is it a lack of engagement, proactivity, communication that would bring inspiration, innovation and success in a challenging environment ?
In other words, what would bring your team to perform at its best – let’s call it its Peak Performance – and guarantee continuous growth for both the company’s results and your people ?
As a CFO, I have looked at ways to measure the "non measurable" that is the "human factor" and its impact on the financial results, till I decided to take the decisive step to bring my 18 years experience in Finance and 15 years in personal development in service of business performance through people and processes.
There are fast, yet efficient and sustainable ways to ensure Peak Performance and Growth and it all starts with measurement of the current situation.
What is Peak Performance ?
Peak performance is reached when teams are both Productive and Positive. In their goal to support high performing and sustainable teams, TCI (Team Coaching International) brought down the conditions necessary to high performing teams to 2 dimensions each measured by 7 Performance Indicators :
- Productivity strengths or competencies that support the teams to be productive. Teams exist to produce results. 7 strengths measure their capacity to deliver : Trust, Team Leadership, Resources, Decision Making, Proactive, Accountability, Goals & Strategies.
- Positivity strengths or competencies that create an environment that supports the team’s productivity. 7 strengths measure the way the teams interact as this influence the quality and output of results : Respect, Camaraderie, Communication, Constructive Interaction, Values Diversity, Optimism, Alignment.
When the teams are compelled with a big challenge to deliver, given the conditions to excel (positive environment encouraging initiative, supporting mistakes as a way to grow), and people’s passion can engage, they reach their full potential to deliver.
A proven Team Performance measurement tool
TCI has collected datas from over 1000 teams and revealed the potential for growth through the following benchmarking :
Benchmarking reveals : high performing, top teams outperform average teams by 42%. Productivity measures by 39%. Positivity measures by 46%.
How does YOUR team perform ?

8 年Dear Haseeb, please do feel free to share it with your network of course. Also let me know if you or any manager in your organisation would like to take the test to assess your team's performance and validate what you might intuitively think. For some reasons the "contact me" link in the article seems to not be working (i need an IT geek here) but you can send me a private message. Thanks!

8 年Good luck with this practical approach Caroline. I hope to see more of your posts in the coming months. Its very rare to see something like this ''free'', and of considerable value. You have quoted Peter Drucker, who is hugely influential in the United States, and Japan. Some say Drucker is the Founder of Modern Management Theory, so your comments have robust foundations!
