3. Yet explaining the difference between high and low performance is often more art than science

4. And there is no shortage of tools to help us

5. As firms get larger, productivity falls

6. And the pace of change is increasing…

7. With this in mind

8. Our research focuses on 3 areas

9. 1. The difference between high and low performance

10. The 6 Box Model in Detail People and Experiential Economic and Material Emergent Leadership CULTURE Democracy Motivation Trust and Transparency Values and Vision Unique Factors BUSINESS MODEL External Environment Goals and Targets Risk Appetite Strategic Direction RELATIONSHIPS Co-operation Good communication Team building Type and quality of interaction SYSTEMS Emergence Organisational Learning Processes Structure INDIVIDUALS Attitude and Mindset Cognitive Interpersonal Self Development RESOURCES Cash Contracts Information Intellectual Property Rights Physical Assets and IT Infrastructure

11. 2. The impact of complexity

12. 3. The timeless nature of trust and relationships

13. Our research seeks to triangulate these elements

14. Creating reliable ways to improve performance

15. Developing new tools and areas of practice

16. And seeding new areas of research

17. The research takes 10-15 minutes per person

18. With optional relationship and team dynamics analysis via the Visual Team Builder (c. 90 minutes per person)
