Organizational Performance Excellence

On this week's episode of the Building Championship Mindsets podcast, Dr. Amber Selking explores what drives organizational high-performance excellence. She highlights the importance of a top-down, bottom-up, and contextually relevant approach to building a comprehensive and integrated system. By aligning the vision, mission, and values of the organization and empowering individuals to take ownership, success becomes sustainable. Dr. Selking also encourages listeners to apply these principles to their families, creating a culture that fosters growth and accomplishment.

STANDOUT QUOTES

  • "Making sure that all parts of your business are integrated and aligned with the vision, mission, values, and accountability structure that's set from the top allows people to own it from the bottom up. Everywhere people go, everywhere that customers go, everywhere that kids go, it's aligned, it's reinforcing, and it's growing who we are and the expectation of how we're going to operate in this environment.” Dr. Selking


  • “The senior leader of the team of the organization has to be bought in. They have to have extreme ownership over the culture and over everything that happens inside of that system." -Dr. Amber Selking
