How Performance Accelerator Works
Performance Accelerator is a defined engagement.
Not an open-ended relationship.
This work exists to fix execution breakdowns — not talk about them for six months without changing anything.
The Container
Performance Accelerator (1:1)
A private, external engagement for Directors and VPs accountable for team performance when too much still depends on them to keep things moving.
• Format: 6-month engagement
• Cadence: Regular working sessions (60–90 minutes)
• Between sessions: Clear actions, decisions, and follow-through that actually holds (non-negotiable)
• Focus: Live work. Real decisions. The current team dynamics affecting execution.
What We Work On
This is applied execution work.
Not theory. Not reflection for reflection’s sake.
• Priorities that actually govern day-to-day decisions
• Decision rights and ownership (who decides, who owns, who executes)
• Delegation that holds without rescue or rework
• Standards and expectations that reduce rework, repeat conversations, and cleanup
• Bottlenecks, miscasting, and recurring breakdowns that keep landing back on you
• The shift from doing → leading under pressure
Clarity
Priorities that still hold on Monday.
Decisions
Decisions that stop looping — made, owned, and communicated.
Execution
A cadence you can actually keep.
How Sessions Run
Each session is built the same way:
Name
What’s breaking right now — not the story about it, the actual mechanics.
Decide
Clear calls on priorities, ownership, standards, and timelines.
Structure
Delegation, handoffs, and accountability so decisions do not keep sliding backward.
Commit
Specific actions before the next session.
Review
What happened, what didn’t, and what changes next.
Confidentiality & Boundaries
This is an external, private engagement.
No HR involvement.
No internal reporting.
No politics.
No performance theater.
Clients choose this work for distance, objectivity, discretion, and a room where the real issue can actually be named.
The First Conversation
This is not a discovery call.
It’s a working conversation to determine:
• Where execution is breaking
• Why it keeps landing back on you
• Whether this is the right engagement
• What it will require from you
If it’s a fit, we move forward.
If not, you’ll still leave clearer than you arrived.
This isn’t about motivation.
It’s about leading without carrying what should no longer depend on you.
