It shows how having a passion for seeing both sides of so many important issues – can I be creative and disciplined, zealous and open to correction, focused and listening for input – is a place where leaders and organizations can really carve out a unique message. Read more…

PPL5The Performance Principle

Everyone talks about “high performance,” but higher than what? Higher than whom? Here we introduce the principle of Pure-Performance™, where it’s either about performance or it isn’t about anything. Instead of comparing your organization with peers or past results, you see how to compare it with potential.

This powerful little book describes the identifying marks of pure performance and hands you ten keys for building a Pure-Performance Organization™. You will discover the 8 Keys to Intelligent Growth™, and learn how to replace “empowerment” with Powersharing™ to achieve your goals. Read more…

Wherever you are in your journey–just starting out or evaluating an established career – this booklet will help you create a practical plan to identify—and start doing—what you love.

As a person of passion, you belong in an organization, and on a team, that shares your unwavering devotion to pursuing that passion.

PLL7The Reality Principle

No organization escapes challenges forever. Even the greatest eventually face change and crisis. But difficulty is a gift, a chance not just to survive but to exploit challenges with the power of passion.

This booklet provides 10 keys for building a reality-based organization, an organization that relentlessly faces daunting facts and processes them into sources of competitive advantage. And if your organization is up against the wall, this essential handbook will show you how to convert a crisis mindset into a quest for vital truth, how to use crisis to increase the passion of your people, and how to make the counterintuitive moves that will bring your organization out of crisis stronger than ever. Read more…

PLL8The Influence Principle

Maybe you’re looking for someone who can show you how to improve your game—your skills, your relationships, or your approach to your life experience.

Maybe you’re passionate about a strength you’ve developed, and you want to help someone else move forward. Or maybe you’re leading an organization and you know how foolish it would be to let the passions of your most accomplished people leave the organization when they do.

This forward-thinking manual will show you how to produce communication that counts—communication that multiplies the value rather than volume of information traveling through your organization. Next, learn how to select the right coaches and mentors, how to make their efforts effective, and how to multiply passion throughout an organization by building practical coaching mechanisms.
