The Standard of Performance served as a compass that pointed to True North.
There is an ebb and flow, an up and down to every week, in every single endeavour at every level. I cut through that ebb and flow with the Standard of Performance. It was our point of reference, deeply entrenched, ongoing and stabilizing.
We established a ’permanent base camp’ near the summit, constantly close to the top, within striking distance, never falling to the bottom of the mountain and starting again.

The Performance Cycle
Stage One: Non Competitive: The organisation is failing to perform
and struggling to survive;
Stage Two: Striving For Success: A motivated team ignites the desire
to succeed and inspires the organisation to strive for success. The
acceleration of progress comes from embracing change and learning
and the commitment to turn learning into action;
Stage Three: The Right Culture. The right people and the right
environment are in place and the opportunity has been created for
the Club to be successful;

Winning after Winning
Stage Four: Success: The organisation gets to the top but then loses
momentum by ceasing to change and learn at the same rate.
In the meantime the competition is accelerating their learning
and performance – determined to become the next No 1;

Winning after Winning
Stage Five: The Fall: Things start to fail. Management and staff get
sacked, reviews, reviews and more reviews are commissioned, finally
the Board is overthrown, there is public brawling and the organisation
is at the brink of collapsing altogether…… And we are back at STAGE
ONE again.

The “Balance”
A study asked 95 year olds if they could live their lives over again what would they do....
1. They would reflect more, enjoy more moments, more sunrises and sunsets, more moments of joy.
2. They would have taken more risks and chances. Life is too short not to go for it.
3. They would have left a legacy, something that would have lived on after they die.

Make a difference
“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead”
