April 21, 2014 The Performance Grroup
EXECUTIVE CAREER & LIFE COACH - theperformancegroup.us is the Owner/Founder of The
Performance Group. Mr. Landi has excelled at careers that combined both science and personal growth for over
twenty-five years. The Performance Group uses the "SPARTAN" Paradigm, their signature system for personal
development; distilled into seven key elements: "S" - SIGNIFICANCE - brings about our greatest contribution
in life: it is when we are living out our true self and we are experiencing prosperity and are significantly
helping others. "P" - PASSION - is the fire that drives action. It’s risky, adventurous, and at times –
unpredictable. When passion is free from ego, it can be unleashed completely to make its mark in the world.
"A" - AUTHENTICITY - is putting your true self forward consistently, opening the door to rewarding and high
performing relationships. "R" - RELEVANCE - is when our passionate and authentic self has found a place to be
nurtured and to thrive. It often is accompanied by compensation and reward. "T" - TRUST - is the life-blood
of high performing relationships, built through transparency and mutual respect. "A" - ASSESSMENT - is where
the science in personal transformation happens. Its where we mix in objective, quantifiable data to measure
performance for progress. As the truth “sets us free”, so then will the numbers give us a reliable benchmark
to quantify results. "N" - NO REGRETS - is our mindset at The Performance Group. It’s about moving away from
regret and moving toward fulfillment by creating and completing these high value experiences and expeditions.
INTERVIEW QUESTIONS INCLUDE: At what point in my life should I consider hiring a life or executive career
coach? How can individuals achieve goals without sacrificing their values? How does one find the most
