How to create a “Culture” of Execution and
Sustainable Employee Performance!

The Impact of a Company’s Culture on increasing Revenues and Profits
Profit is an outcome of a company’s culture.
A company’s culture is a direct result of the “effectiveness of managing and developing people
well”. People and their development enable profit. Enable people and you enable profit.
Organizations which approach training and development from this standpoint inevitably foster
people who perform well and progress.
Learning is not merely gaining knowledge. It’s about “translating knowing what to do into
doing what we’ve learned.” It’s about CHANGING! If we have not changed – we really have
not learned!
- Jim Collins

Sustainable Employee Performance!

are effectively executed

1-I will allow others to express their points of view first
to build trust and encourage a safe environment of
communication .
2- Engage with coworkers more about discussing our
path forward and communicate with them to
understand their motivations, challenges and personal
goals.

by establishing key performance indicators with them
and, where appropriate, from their supervisors.
