Peak performers are individuals with confidence—They have a well-established belief that they can accomplish what they set out to do. They KNOW that they can and will achieve their goal.
These are people who have pushed the envelope and been subjected to tests
far beyond what they previously thought they could do. Challenging fears is the fuel that builds confidence, and the resulting energy is what propels people forward to dream and achieve new dreams.
Q: What have you done lately that challenged you beyond what you thought you were capable of doing?
Q: With your confidence, what new frontier are you called to tackle?

we just visited. The building was filled with nice, highly educated individuals (think advanced degrees) with lots of confidence. In fact, the confidence was a bit overwhelming. These were folks who seem to have a mindset of “We’ve got it…been there and done that, and can tell you the best way to approach any project you throw at me. Just bring it on!” And in many ways, the confidence serves the organization well. Yet, individually, many seem to feel that improvement only applies to the other people. These team members clearly think they already have all of the knowledge and skills they need, and any feedback or coaching pertains to anyone but them. This is clearly not a learning organization.
