The A-Player
Audit™
Your team will live up to the standards of the people around them. This session will help you clarify who are your A-players, and what to do with the rest.
"This workshop changed the way we think of people across my company."
One B/C player is too many.
They keep passing. But they can't score.
The activity is there. Meetings, updates, handoffs. But the moment it matters, the other team takes the ball and scores.
Someone's hogging the ball.
They think they're the superstar. Maybe they are. But they never score, and they take the chance to score away from everyone else.
The standards have dropped.
A team with low standards doesn't win. Let it run long enough, and the quiet fear becomes real: you lose the game.
"Your standards have nothing to do with them. They're yours, so own them."
Get the right people on the pitch.
Your best people finally have room to run.
Remove the friction quietly holding everyone back, and the team that was only promising starts performing.
Everyone knows where they stand.
The ambiguity that's been draining you, and them, is gone. People know what's expected, and rise to meet it.
You leave with a decision, not a question.
No more waiting to see what happens. You know what you want from each person, and exactly what to do next.
What you'll practise.
How to Kill an A-Player™
See exactly what's been turning your best hires into underperformers, and stop it before it costs you another one.
The Manager's Responsibility™
Walk out knowing what's yours to own and what isn't, so the hardest calls finally get easier to make.
The Taking Responsibility Session™
Say the thing you've been avoiding about your team, out loud, with peers who hold you to it.
The A-Player Audit™
Leave with a clear read on every person on your team, and a decision about each. Not a list of concerns. A plan.
