Peak Performance Leadership

Leaders need to be true to themselves, their organizations and most importantly to their people. Today, with the intense pace of daily activities, obligations, and the never-ending stream of information through social media, it is difficult to remain focused and mindful of our actions and surroundings. Losing touch with reality and the world can leave leaders lost and on a path of destruction which could prove to be disastrous for all those involved.

Sometimes it just happens, you as a middle leader are stuck between senior management's decision and the negative impact it has on your team. At times, you do not even agree with the decision or policies associated with the decision but it is yours to enforce. These are the circumstance where leader courage is essential for you to protect yourself, your team, and your organization.

Leader courage is the ability to stand up to those more senior leaders and management and tell them what you actually think. Leaders of all level need this courage so that they can do whatever they can mitigate potential disasters. However, sometimes at the end of the day the decision is not yours and as leaders we need to live with it.

We’re more connected on the job than ever before. Text communication, now instant and global, means we’re no longer constrained by time and distance. But as a result, our professional relationships and personal well-being have suffered. Despite the adage, business is personal. Yet communication has become fixed and faceless, easily misinterpreted, mismanaged, or altogether missed.

Achieving fearless success and high performing teams are just some of the things which leaders dream of. These aspects of leading an organization make every second of being a leader both rewarding and challenging at the same time. However, there are some organizations out there which simply force their members to rise above the rest, force them to increase their capacity by 300% without sympathy, and they strive to improve themselves every single day.

John Foley is a leadership keynote speaker who inspires audiences with his energy and his commitment to serving others, while also providing a unique leadership framework that makes trust, teamwork and high performance possible for anyone in any organization. He is a former F/A-18 Hornet fighter pilot and the former lead Solo Blue Angel performance pilot. To say he knows a thing or two regarding performance under pressure, building high performing teams, or achieving success would be a gross understatement.

Fearless Success Topics

During this interview, John and I cover the following topics:

• How he ensured that he became a F/A-18 Pilot
• How he turned the failure of his 1st attempt at the Blue Angels into a learning opportunity
• The basis of his system for creating high-performing teams
• Why beliefs are so important in creating high-performance teams
• Why briefing your team is so crucial to success
• How to get teams to commit to the vision and plan
• How trust will ensure fearless execution
• How to debrief to win
