Achieving a high level of performance is challenging—but sustaining it year after year is even harder. Like keeping off those same 10 pounds, it’s much easier to focus on attaining a goal than to sustain it. So how do organizations maintain that intensity once they’ve “met their goal?”
This session featured a panel of experts who have been directly involved in shaping high-maturity practices and who continue to advise organizations seeking to achieve and sustain excellence. They responded to a set of questions that highlight insights from across industries, addressing topics such as:
- How high-maturity organizations handle disruptions—such as leadership changes, reorganizations, or shifting priorities—without losing the ground they’ve gained
- Practices that make it easier to weather setbacks without derailing performance
- The most important advice for organizations that want to sustain high maturity for the long haul
The discussion began with these focused questions, and continued with additional questions from participants. Attendees gained practical strategies for avoiding backsliding, keeping leaders and teams engaged, navigating disruptions, and using data and culture to maintain world-class performance.
