What if World Class performance was as simple as taking the brakes off, to release the pent-up competitive energy of your organisation?
Imagine you are in a saloon car race, winner takes all. You are on the starting line with your competition, engines revving, watching the lights go from red to green and the flag comes down to signal the start of the race.
Your heart thumps as the tyres screech and slide on the tarmac as you move forward in a pack. You slowly overhaul car after car with your 1% advantage.
The road is cloaked in smoke from the tyres and your car smells hot and struggling. Then you are overtaken easily, by a driver looking relaxed and in control. You watch the car vanish out of sight as your car shudders and grinds to a halt.
Cars all around you are coming to a halt. Your car smells awful and you are certain it is broken!
All those broken-down cars: they all drove with their handbrake fully applied.
Not only would the cars use a lot of fuel, they would start to smell as the brake produced heat and the cars performance would be severely depressed, by more than 1% anyway.
What if to achieve a winning performance, all you need to do is release the handbrake?
But you don’t see this opportunity because everyone else has their handbrake fully applied—apart from the race winner of course. It’s normal.
Now is the time to release your handbrake.
