We Improve the Automatic Aspects of Human Performance
We are experts at erasing and replacing deeply ingrained habits and thought patterns that limit performance excellence and therefore interfere with attaining and sustaining success. We handle these difficult problems in a systematic way using our understanding of the second, previously elusive, automatic mode of human activities.
You improve your performance through continuous incremental improvements to your thinking-self – you become more knowledgeable. That is not our focus. We change lives and cultures. We improve performance and enable long-term success through periodic transformational improvements to your auto-self. Our concepts contain no hype and nothing mystical. Our practices rely on our solid, pragmatic understanding of automatic behaviors and of contexts that frame our thoughts – and on proven techniques for transforming the automatic side of human nature.
We improve the automatic aspects of performance three ways: ▪ Profiling leaders' strengths and limitations with emphasis on hidden automatic characteristics ▪ Coaching to transform counterproductive behaviors ▪ Instilling the capability to reconstruct auto-contexts (switch paradigms; change cultures)
We will lead you to understand the automatic aspects of human performance and to know (contextualize) how to improve those, including automatic behaviors and the uncontrollable ways you handle fundamental aspects of how to succeed. Using the concepts presented in this website, we will lead you to cross the chasm to a new performance-improvement bipartite-mind context that will provide you a sustainable competitive advantage. We guide you to achieve a bold breakout into a new frontier of sustained success.
We Create Self-Awareness by Profiling Strengths and Limitations
Value we provide: Our performance surveys reveal underutilized auto-self strengths that inhibit reaching full potential and insidious auto-self characteristics that undermine otherwise excellent performance.
Our process: We precede most coaching engagements with a comprehensive leadership performance survey consisting of an online multi-rater survey (360° survey of boss, peers, and subordinates plus potentially other groups) and interviews combined into a comprehensive package that pinpoints strengths to leverage and weaknesses to overcome.
Our engagement: We analyze and combine results into a report that we present in person to each participant and separately to each participant's boss and HR representative. Often, more people participate in the leadership performance survey than a company plans to invest in through coaching. We prioritize participants according to the benefits coaching will provide the company. In cases where inadequate performance has persisted so long that too many influential people have negative attitudes about them, we identify this and recommend repositioning the person and searching for a better replacement instead of coaching. If you cannot identify a viable internal replacement, we work with you to select a recruiting organization that understands the decisive influence of the auto-self and can locate candidates who not only have superior intellect and outstanding knowledge but also have auto-self characteristics that align with the needs of the job and your organization.
Our differentiation: We distinguish ourselves from others by combining questionnaires and interviews, by analyzing and organizing the feedback report according to the most relevant characteristics for each participant, and by focusing on the strengths and limitations of the automatic aspects of each participant in the context of your success needs.
We Coach Leaders to Achieve Peak Performance
Value we provide: Our transformational coaching unleashes trapped potential and overcomes involuntary characteristics that undermine reaching peak performance.
Our process: We transform uncontrollable behaviors that undermine sustained success. We do it directly by counteracting the feelings that drive the dysfunctional behavior and indirectly by reconstructing auto-contexts that create negative attitudes. We transform counterproductive habits that block needed actions and those that create disruptive behaviors.
Our engagement: Coaching takes place mostly over the telephone. We conduct two one-hour telephone coaching sessions a week and one face-to-face session a month. We also provide face-to-face feedback once a quarter to the Sponsors, which normally consist of the top executive and the top HR person at the site. Coaching engagements normally last about one year to achieve permanent results.
Our differentiation: With deep executive experience, we sometimes advise our clients. However, we focus on transformational coaching as opposed to advisory coaching. We follow a systematic process of counteracting the feelings that drive undesired behaviors and recontextualizing attitudes that cause them. We base our techniques on a solid understanding of the properties of the underlying mental activities that control business-related performance. We have the advantage of coaching from the vantage point of the new performance-improvement contextual Pinnacle (paradigm, mindset) – we automatically differentiate actions and thought patterns in terms of intentional activities or automatic activities.
We Transform Cultural Issues for Groups: Enabling Companies to Reach the Pinnacle of Performance
Value we provide: We help you identify dysfunction in your culture that persists because “that’s the way we always do things around here.” Our experiential workshops transform shared counterproductive behaviors and reconstruct obsolete cultural artifacts.
Our process: To succeed in today's environment, we must change the rules of the game for performance improvement. We construct a new performance-improvement culture, or in the terminology used at this website, we help you cross the chasm to a new performance-improvement Pinnacle that enables you and your organization to recognize, understand (more accurately, "contextualize"), and manage the automatic aspects of human performance.
Our engagement: This program uses experiential workshops with on-the-job practice between sessions. You will achieve best results if top management and other key influencers participate. Depending on specific goals, we will conduct four to six workshops over 6 to 9 months ranging from one day to a half day each. These participants then take responsibility for changing the company culture by guiding others to cross the chasm to the new performance-improvement Pinnacle.
Our differentiation: We uniquely enable companies to contextualize and manage the automatic aspects of human performance and performance improvement and, as part of that process, learn to recognize and replace other obsolete auto-contexts.
Companies often need to improve one or more of the following culturally-embedded behaviors: making and meeting commitments, holding people accountable, managing time, conducting meetings, resolving conflicts, reviewing performance, checking references, and most importantly, crossing the chasm to a new performance-improvement Pinnacle, which provides the template for auto-context reconstructions. You can understand each of these activities without much effort. The challenge is to contextualize them by practicing so they become shared auto-contexts that drive desired practices.

From the inadequate uniform-mind Pinnacle for performance excellence you probably occupy today, you should now have at least a foggy vision of the new auto-context terrain outlined at this website. If you invite us in, we will launch you on a regenerative winning path made possible by periodically using our techniques to transform counterproductive auto-behaviors and to reconstruct obsolete auto-contexts.
We guide clients to experience an auto-context reconstruction. This internal reconstruction process helps in transforming some behaviors through attitude changes, creating a realistic self-image, and changing the business model when the environment dictates the need. We can only understand and effectively help others transform auto-behaviors (undesired habits) if we experience behavior transformations ourselves (which coaches must do). We also can only understand the nature and difficulties with an auto-context reconstruction if we consciously participate in the process ourselves (which leaders should do). Consequently, we guide leaders through the pivotal auto-context reconstruction to a new performance-improvement auto-context that includes how context reconstructions work. If you understand this point, then you should want to call us so we can guide you to implement it. If you don't understand this point, then you need to contact us right away so we can lead you to cross the chasm to the new performance-improvement Pinnacle. You will find it increasingly painful if you fail to reach the new performance-improvement Pinnacle, and you will find it extremely difficult to cross this chasm on your own.
We can help you catch the next business leadership wave by guiding you to a more powerful way to improve performance as a new basis for sustaining success. To learn more about how we can help improve your performance or the performance of those you must develop beyond what any of you might imagine,
