The Exceptional Impact of a Brilliant Culture – Curating High Performance Company Cultures Where High Achievers Thrive
High Achievers outperform the average worker by 14% in productivity, 18% in sales, and 23% in profitability, according to research. However, research shows that 8 out of 10 employees worldwide are not engaged in their work, leaving only 2 of 10 involved in and enthusiastic about what they do. This is a wake-up call for founders and leaders as culture impacts everything from productivity, engagement, and customer loyalty to the speed of innovation, retention of talent, growth, and, of course, profitability. It’s time to reimagine the workplace, starting with a culture where people thrive.

Culture as Your Silver Bullet – Designing and Scaling High Performing Company Cultures as a Founder and Leader
Culturally-driven companies have 18% more revenue per employee than the average. And having a thriving culture is a choice — one that can be made intentionally.

The High Achiever Culture – Strategically Leading, Investing in, and Championing Your High Achievers
High Achievers thrive alongside fellow High Achievers, and they attract each other. They are looking for the freedom to perform and thrive in deep alignment with your company’s vision. However, a lack of leadership capabilities costs U.S. corporations up to $550 billion annually, according to research. In many companies where the 9-to-5 factory model still continues, the mentality that every hour carries the same value is still very persistent. However, most employees no longer work in a factory environment, and it’s been proven that using old models in modern companies leads to old results. It’s time to reimagine the workplace in the age of High Achievers.
