About
We believe people deserve a chance to be great and work in an environment they love; and that an organization’s culture should build a sense of community while fulfilling its mission. We believe managers should be more than supervisors – they should coach and mentor their employees.
Company culture drives an organization’s competitive advantage because it determines how things are done and how people behave — an advantage that is difficult to copy. When your culture drives performance and fosters team chemistry, it’s known as a Performance Culture. While each organization’s culture is unique, a Performance Culture includes a pattern of remarkably consistent behaviors known as core values. We believe leaders who focus on people will produce the returns required for an organization to be successful.
We developed the Performance Culture System™ (PCS) to ensure behaviors are never ignored in the efforts to achieve business results. Great performing organizations require great coaches. The Performance Culture platform provides leaders and supervisors with an agile, effective system to guide the process and capture the information needed to support performance improvement efforts. Performance Culture provides employees a process to achieve their personal and career goals through coaching, feedback, and clear expectations.
Mediocrity should not be accepted and organizations should not be weighed down by disengaged employees simply because leaders don’t have the courage or energy to hold team members accountable. The Performance Culture platform enables managers to have crucial conversations that help team members maximize their potential.
In order for Performance Culture to be successful and achieve our vision, we must have partners who:
- Believe in what Performance Culture does;
- Follow the Performance Culture process;
- Have the experience and people skills required to be an effective coach; and
- Love helping others maximize their potential.
