2. REACHING HIGH PERFORMANCE (SM-HP)

Design thinking is the latest approach for seeking solutions to new challenges and issues that need to attention to stay relevant and competitive in our environment. It is about putting things in the proper perspective with critical thinking and integrating with constraints of the environment, markets and resources to find suitable answers before decisions are made.
The current health crisis and its economic impact requires a fresh look for the times ahead, and all things we already understand will be examined with new lenses. Proactive action now is perhaps timely and Design Thinking can the tool to get started.

It is the never-ending dream of the management team to achieve full customer satisfaction, optimize profits and maximize cash flows in a volatile and competitive environment. The reality is that employee behavior is as volatile as the ever-changing work environment. As organizations keep transforming to keep up with changes, disoriented employees and teams will have to be reconnected and re-oriented time and again. Reaching peak performance is an endless endeavour for all managers in search for excellence as fresh people join the organization while existing employees leave. Nothing stays the same for long, so is peak performance.
