What's enabling or blocking high performance?
High Performance Culture is an overall Index, measuring how effectively an organisation enables and sustains exceptional performance through leadership, supportive structures, and a positive work environment. It reflects the alignment of organisational practices with employee capacity, Well-being, and motivation, ensuring that individuals can consistently deliver quality work, adapt to change, manage time effectively, and maintain balance while feeling supported and engaged.
All sub-indexes scored out of 5. Trends indicate change vs previous 12-week cycle.
