High Performance Model

About the
Coaching Tool

The High Performance Model is a practical framework that maps the intersection between job skills (technical performance) and emotional intelligence (people skills). It illustrates how leaders and team members can fall into four categories—from the "Super Star" to the "Incompetent Jerk"—and why true high performance requires strength in both competence and interpersonal effectiveness. This tool is ideal for talent development, leadership coaching, and performance reviews to help individuals grow into their full potential.
