How to apply Peak Performance Training in your
organization
 Who
needs Peak Performance Training? Anybody who faces stress or competitive pressure on a regular basis,
regardless of their lifestyle or position in the organizational chart.
Top professional
athletes, artists and business leaders learn to master peak performance by
trial and error, through sheer persistence and determination. But it
also can be learned by anybody who is willing to train at it, such as a
mother, a neurosurgeon, a banker or a salesperson. Learning
this powerful skill becomes even more important when "acting" and
"modeling" the desired behavior effectively might represent the different
between success and failure.
According to Dr. James
Loehr and Tony Schwartz, authors of "The Power of Full Engagement," the
corporate body is a living, breathing
entity formed by
individual cells of dynamic energy.
The total capacity of
the corporate body to do work is the sum of all capabilities of the
individual cells within the organization. The same principles of energy
management that apply to an individual's peak performance also apply to the
organization.
Loehr and Schwartz
remind us that "the most important resource of the organization is
energy.
Organizational energy
capacity increases as individuals increase their collective capacity. The
foundation of energy mobilization in the corporate body is physical. The
quality of fitness, diet, sleep, rest and hydration among individuals plays
a fundamental role in determining overall organizational capacity." They go on to say that "great leaders are experts in mobilizing and
focusing
all of the energy resources in the corporate body in the service of the
corporate mission.
Alignment drives
performance. Lack of alignment significantly restricts the quantity,
quality, direction and force of available energy."
Sustainable peak performance is based on
mobilizing and focusing all of the energy resources in the corporate body in
the service of the corporate mission. Alignment drives performance.
Lack of alignment significantly restricts the quantity, quality, direction
and force of available energy. The alignment process starts at the
individual level and has the potential to energize the corporate body once
it's integrated into the processes and operational aspects.
