What really sets apart high performing organisations from the rest? Business and management strategist, Nicholas Barnett, explores this in his new book, 7 Business Habits That Drive High Performance. Based on research involving more than 100,000 employees from around 200 organisations, the book says sustainable high performance is not fuelled by downsizing, outsourcing, cost-cutting or restructuring. Rather, it is achieved by consistently adopting the following seven interrelated and indispensable habits: live an inspiring vision; communicate clear strategies and goals; develop your people; go out of your way to recognise your people; genuinely care for your people; listen and adapt to your customers’ needs; and continually improve your systems. Written in a down to earth and practical way, this book is a great guide for HR and business leaders looking to establish healthy psychological contracts with their staff and build a successful and sustainable enterprise.
