Recommendation

This “Performance Triangle” text is a tool, manual and guide. Swiss management consultant Lukas Michel bases it on data from his extensive study of organizations over the course of his 30-year career. He understands that modern companies must adapt, make better decisions and exercise agility in a system that centers on people. His triangle shows how strong organizations structure themselves. Michel offers a “leadership scorecard” and an organizational diagnostic plus warnings, suggestions and ideas for building a powerful framework for organizational success. Instead of reading it cover to cover, you might carry out the diagnostic on page 18, identify your priorities and turn to the specific sections offering insights into those areas. Michel avoids giving tips or prescribing a “to-do” list, but he shows you how to develop solutions using his “diagnostic self-mentoring” tool for thoughtful executives. getAbstract recommends Michel’s ambitious, demanding book to determined leaders seeking insight into what elements of their operations require attention.

Take-Aways

  • Assess your firm with the “Performance Triangle” and the “Leadership Scorecard.”
  • Use the Triangle’s 10 questions to diagnose your firm’s “success, culture, leadership, systems, rules, routines, tools, collaboration, relationships” and “purpose.”
  • The Leadership Scorecard further evaluates “systems, leadership, culture” and “success,” which includes “agility, alignment, capabilities, motivation” and “smarts.”
