Get Better at Who You Are To Get Better at What You Do

The Challenge: Too few organizations provide the character-building and performance science needed for excellence under conditions of stress, pressure, and uncertainty.

The Opportunity: Science and ancient wisdom reveal how to flourish under pressure and uncertainty. We have the knowledge and tools to excel during life’s most challenging moments.

The Problem With Most Training

People have never needed development more or had less time for it. Most training overestimates what knowledge alone can accomplish and underestimates the power of habitual change. It overestimates what’s possible in a day and dramatically underestimates what’s possible in a year.

There is no quick fix. Performance and character development is not an event — it is a practice. But organizations that commit to it see consistent, measurable returns: employee engagement improves 10% to 20% year over year, and with it, the retention, collaboration, and execution that drive sustainable performance.

For your company to grow, your people must grow. And when your people grow in character, your organization grows in performance.

West Point data shows that 75% of individual performance is explained by character and relational factors, not technical skill.

Engagement research reveals that 70% of the variance in whether people are engaged at work is determined by the relationship between the leader and the team.

MIT research demonstrates that 66% of the variance in ROI is explained by the 66% of the variance in ROI is explained by the quality of the leader-team relationship — strategy accounts for 33%.

Harvard's landmark longitudinal study on human flourishing finds that the single best predictor of how long we live and how well we live is the quality of our relationships.

What People Say About Better Humans Better Performance

About
Better Humans Better Performance

BHBP is for leaders and teams who want to practice the science of high performance guided by character. Strong organizations are not built by developing leaders alone — they are built by developing the teams those leaders depend on. We work at both levels simultaneously, because that is where culture actually changes.

We start where you are — with your existing priorities, business goals, meetings, and activities — and integrate the science of high performance and character into what you are already doing.

The process is practical and deliberate: leaders and teams review the evidence together, then make conscious decisions about what to keep doing because it works, what to start doing because science supports it, and what to stop doing because it undermines performance and relationships. Habitual change is best achieved not by adding new obligations but by improving what you are already committed to, grounded in evidence.

Our courses are built around one core principle: Organizations that develop character systematically build the relational trust that makes everything else — execution, collaboration, resilience — faster and more durable.
