High-performance organizations are led by high-performance teams.

Fast Lane CEOs must shift their priority from building the business to developing the leadership team.  Developing the #One Team in the industry will take an investment of both time and money, but it will yield an incredible return.

Jay Lorsch and Tom Tierney capture this thought well, “Outstanding firms are consistently able to identify, attract, and retain star performers; to get stars committed to the firm’s strategy; to manage stars across geographic distance, business lines, and generations; to govern and lead so that both the organization and the stars prosper and feel rewarded.  These capabilities are what give great firms their competitive advantage.”

In high-performance organizations, the CEO sets the bar for development.  The CEO’s unwavering commitment to developing the executives into the #One Team let’s everyone know that “we are in the people business.”  They invest a significant percentage of their time developing, coaching, and aligning their leaders.

The Shift Points blog is designed for Fast Lane leaders who want to leave their competitors in the dust.
