Most leaders don’t struggle with effort. Their teams are capable and hard-working. But when results stall, the instinct is to increase intensity: more accountability, tighter oversight, and "stronger" direction. Sometimes that works, but often it doesn’t. The team works harder, but the outcomes don’t correlate.

The issue usually isn't motivation. It’s how the team is set up to perform. Competing priorities, unclear ownership, and inconsistent decision-making limit performance, no matter how hard people work.

Building High-Performance Teams helps leaders focus their team's efforts where they create the most impact. Instead of pushing harder, you'll learn to clarify priorities, improve decision quality, and reshape team dynamics so performance improves without constant pressure. The result is consistent, measurable execution across the team.

Who Should Attend

This program is for leaders who are accountable for team performance. That includes:

• Managers leading intact teams
• Directors and Vice Presidents responsible for enterprise execution
• HR or people leaders supporting leadership effectiveness and organizational culture
• Project leaders responsible for delivering results in complex, cross-functional environments

You'll get the most value if you oversee a team where results depend less on individual effort and more on how well the group works together. If you are responsible for translating strategy into coordinated action, this program helps you make the leap from good to great.

What You'll Learn

By the end of the program, you will be better prepared to:

1. Diagnose what is limiting your team’s performance, including unclear priorities, slow decisions, or diffuse accountability.
2. Clarify roles, expectations, and ownership so work can move forward without constant escalation.
3. Improve decision quality and speed by strengthening how discussions are structured and how trade-offs are surfaced.
4. Align individual strengths with the team’s mandate so contributions are intentional and coordinated.
5. Create conditions where disagreement is productive, risks are raised early, and accountability is shared.

You will explore psychological safety, bias awareness, and inclusive leadership as performance enablers that strengthen execution and decision-making.
