Guidance Notes
Teams and Organisations should cultivate an environment and culture conducive to high performance.
This should include a focus on:
- Team commitment and performance
- Outcomes over outputs.
- Leadership over management.
- Experimentation and adaptation over following a plan.
- Empowerment, with decision making delegated to the point of information.
- Trust enabled by transparency over rules and regulations.
- Rigour, care, and consideration of everything that’s done.
- A constant desire for improvement.
- Investment in people.
