Can Your Transferrable Skills Transform You Into a High Performer?

Can Your Transferrable Skills Transform You Into a High Performer? In an exploratory interview with Sue Firth, she and I uncover the source of high performance for many in business and sports. She and I discussed how personal misfortune can sometimes be the catalyst for becoming extraordinary. In other cases, careers in unrelated fields can provide competencies to transform a team, division or enterprise. In the face of understanding top performers, most breakthrough initiatives fail in organizations. Many believe they fail because people do not want to leave their comfort zone. Yes, that happens. At the same time, when it comes to breakthrough initiatives, people have limiting beliefs associated with the new project. In most cases, the breakthrough may require new skills and competencies to complete. If you believe you do not possess them, you may sabotage the initiative with the belief you are remaining relevant. For sure the new project will require new thinking. Except, it is easier to think the same as you always have. However, it is possible to bridge the gap by first exploring transferrable skills to execute the new initiative. That may make it easier to move the needle and get the project started with minimal delays. When the entire team does this together, new ideas exploode. Then it becomes easier to execute the breakthrough. Do not miss my series of videos on the Disruptive Leadership Model.
