Damian has returned to Business Problems Solved to guide you through how to unlock the secrets of high-performance in people, so that you can invigorate your business journey!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
High performers are generally blessed with a rare humility. It is this humility that allows them to see the potential of external change. Everybody has the capacity to be a high performer in a selected field. The key is to unlock the identity of that field, and help that person to become the best performer they can be. The transition into becoming a high performer is often triggered by an event that jolts our way of thinking. these are the “golden seed” moments as described by Freud. The art of successful teaching is the art of reducing an idea, or gestating it, so that the idea is refined to its core. By discovering the seed of the idea, we can make it translatable to every kind of audience through the outer garments of words. When we slow down, we come to appreciate the speed at which we were moving. The lockdown has given us all the benefit of seeing how reflection can alter perception.BEST MOMENTS
‘We are often distracted by the outcome of a performance instead of the seeds of it’
‘If you’re good at something, then you’re also smart enough to be able to explain why you’re good at it’
‘At some stage in your life, someone comes along and sows a golden seed that makes you believe in yourself’
’Sometimes ideas need time to gestate and grow’
