Building A High Performance Culture

Lucinda looks at high performance strategies, focusing on the importance of feedback in driving performance in organisations. She discusses evidence-based drivers of performance, emphasising the need for quality people management activities and classic performance management. Key topics covered include the significance of courageous and consistent feedback, defining good quality feedback, and implementing models like growth mindset and radical candour. KEY TAKEAWAYS Focus on providing specific feedback, both positive and developmental, to drive high performance. Train managers on how to give feedback effectively, emphasising the importance of clarity and timeliness. Encourage a feedback culture by implementing feedback rituals at meetings and requesting feedback from team members. Avoid giving feedback at the values and identity levels, sticking to behavioural and environmental feedback in the workplace. Utilise tools like the "paper clip trick" to track and encourage the delivery of specific feedback throughout the day. BEST MOMENTS "The majority of people rated feedback skills of line managers in their organisations at a two or a three out of five, so less than average." "If you can do that, then we are much less likely to trigger a threat response and it absolutely will build and boost performance." "Many of us hate the thought of giving people developmental feedback, because it feels awkward or confrontational, yet that's actually what people learn from and that's what they want to be the best they can be." "The interesting thing about skill and capability which is a question I was asked is obviously in the UK one of the ways in which you can exit people it's through capability or conduct."
