Tripod of Performance: where are you on each axis?


PERSONAL backbone:

• Identity: Who am I?

• Values: What is important for me? (My mind-set, my behaviours)

• Drivers: What motivates me? (My boosters)

• Quest: What do I want to achieve? (My purpose/aspiration)

CORPORATE backbone:

• Identity: Core business? + Core Mission? + UVP?

• Values: Every company has them on the website, do they live them on the working floor?

• Drivers: Which are they? (Can be very differently perceived! New generations?)

• Quest: Vision/Ambition? (2020 Vision, building a better working world!)

Organizational Vitality: the 4th axis: SQ: your backbone!!

Agility in top sports
