The rapid results package: Better performance/stronger managers

With the rapid changes taking place in today's world, the new capabilities required of managers are outpacing the capacity of most organizations to respond. Traditional management development has proved incapable of effecting needed changes. The Rapid Results approach, a performance process, has demonstrated that it can play a critical role in responding to this challenge. When crises and ‘must-do’ situations occur in organizations, managers almost always rise to the occasion and achieve well beyond their regular levels of performance. The Rapid Results approach is designed to generate the same zest by getting teams to strive for and achieve almost impossible goals. They are helped to innovate and to exploit new approaches. And when teams succeed, the fun of evolving new approaches and the reinforcement of success produce managers who are in turn more ready to try their hands at additional, even tougher goals. Thus, management development and heightened achievement are blended into a single process.
