As a firm of independent human resources consultants in Africa, we offer imaginative services and products to assist organizations on sustainable high performance management. From our experience as independent high performance management consultants in Africa, we understand that high performance management goes beyond the introduction of performance management systems. The commitment of people to the performance management systems and the use to which they put the systems are critical. Besides, there are key complementary activities that must be done to drive high performance in organizations. Therefore, our service in high performance management is holistic and incorporates a systemic review as well as imaginative workouts that build synergy of personal performance and corporate excellence. We undertake the following human resources reviews to help organizations get sustainable high performance from their human resources: - Staff selection system

A key driving force in sustainable high performance management systems is creating synergy of personal excellence among key people of organizations and corporate excellence in respect of the integrating elements of organizations. When people are at their best and the organizational dynamics and systems are well honed and integrated, organizations get to a level where they can attain sustainable high performance. This is the value we uphold in our services as a unique firm of independent human resources consultants in Africa. And it is the focus of the innovative workshops and seminars we call SPACE Programs TM, acronym for ‘Synergy of Personal and Corporate Excellence’ Programs. Using an efficient, imaginative and down-to-earth framework in a series of interactive forum, roundtables, and real-time, business linked exercises and projects, organizations could incorporate high performance keys and enhance their people’s capacity to champion today’s success and position their organizations for tomorrow’s vision of excellence. Thus, laying a solid foundation for sustainable high performance. How SPACE Programs Work General SPACE Programs TM are specialized, in-house workshops, forums, roundtables and exercises where we employ sound and insightful principles and approaches to foster synergy of personal and corporate excellence. The principles and model we employ drive people’s actualizing attributes in synergy with integrating organizational attributes. With the interactive and insightful SPACE TM Programs, each lasting 2-2½ days, the people of client organizations develop their personal effectiveness while exploring key relevant aspects of corporate excellence in order to give the best to their organizations. SPACE TM Programs are not offered as public workshops. Poise Sessions There are usually interactive but reflective sessions called 'poise sessions' during each SPACE TM Program. The 'Poise Sessions' are designed exclusively to create interaction among the people of the organization and channel their thought processes to develop a unified vision of their company’s future. For example, within the ambience of each SPACE TM Program, the following kind of issues are reflected upon and worked through: - Is the organization currently prepared (by key interrelated systems or actualizing attributes) to meet today’s business demands and future business challenges? What is being done to secure the future of the organization in business?
- Are the organizational systems or attributes and people correctly positioned along the same strategic corporate objectives or ultimate vision of excellence?
- What organizational attributes and factors are critical to achieving sustainable high performance and corporate growth? How are they fostered in the organization?
- Given, or in the context of, the specific theme of the SPACE TM Program, what personal excellence attributes and corporate excellence elements need be integrated for a transformation objective, sustainable high performance or the vision of tomorrow?
Actionable PEPs The unique methodology and versatile approaches we employ in SPACE TM Programs efficiently and effectively address critical issues of sustainable high performance and focus people’s efforts and minds in imaginative ways. For example, an integral part of each SPACE TM Program is the development of self-monitored ‘Performance Enhancement Plans’ (PEPs) by the participants, focusing on the integration of personal effectiveness and corporate success. Each ‘Performance Enhancement Plan’ (PEP) represents a ‘commitment-to-excellence’ contract, which each participant develops and endeavors to achieve using key high performance principles over a specified period of time. In this way, the PEPs serve as an important facilitating tool in sustainable high performance management systems. ICS We produce an ‘In-SPACE Corporate Summary’ (ICS) on each SPACE TM Program, which we send to the CEO or Managing Director for the benefit of the client organization. In order that the ICS have the organizational value we intend, our approach enables the participants to develop the right kind of orientation; mindsets and attributes that drive sustainable high performance as they examine some issues of strategic importance to their organization during the 'Poise Sessions'.
