    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."

    The Last 100 Days - with Michelle Parry-Slater

    Lucinda welcomes back guest Michelle Parry Slater from Kairos Modern Learning to discuss the concept of the "last hundred days." Michelle shares her personal experience of working her notice period before relocating to Australia and highlights the importance of focusing on the end of the employee lifecycle as much as the beginning. KEY TAKEAWAYS Shift the focus from just the first 100 days to also include the last 100 days of an employee's journey in the organisation. Encourage open and honest conversations between employees and managers about career aspirations, motivations, and potential exits. Emphasise the importance of knowledge management during transitions to ensure valuable information is not lost when employees leave. Build high trust relationships between managers and employees to facilitate better communication and understanding of individual needs and aspirations. Aim for employees to leave with advocacy, involvement in recruitment of successors, and a sense of legacy to create a positive impact even after they depart. BEST MOMENTS "We only ever hear people talking about the first hundred days. And it got me thinking, what does the last hundred days need to look like? And why don't we talk about it?" "Essentially, that whole employee lifecycle starts with that brand awareness. And I think some of that brand awareness rubs off from the last hundred days, because if you've got people leaving with advocacy..." "Do you think companies are scared sometimes? Let's say you're a smaller business or, you know, you hear the expression people talk about dead man's shoes, you have no intention of going anywhere and people perceive that the only way is, is into your job." "I think that especially in a smaller company, it's very comfortable, it works, why are you going to rock the boat?"

There is a crucial need for intentional design and facilitation of learning communities to ensure effectiveness and impact. We should embrace the value of diversity in learning communities to foster innovation, problem-solving, and shared expertise.

Leaders can elevate their leadership by appreciating, celebrating, and elevating the values and contributions of their team members BEST MOMENTS "Gratitude experienced is better than gratitude explained. You don't need to understand gratitude to experience it."  "It's much more impactful to show that you recognise someone for being impressive or to recognise others."  "Nothing demoralises people more or more quickly than a leader taking credit for their contribution." "Simple plus sincere and specific expressions of gratitude are significant."
