The Top Performer’s Field Guide: Catalysts for Leaders, Superstars and All Who Aspire to Be

Top performance transforms people, products, organizations and institutions.

Top Performers have unique personal characteristics that go far beyond the numbers. While they appear to be laser-focused on results, it is their relationships, professional acumen, and drive to achieve that all work together seamlessly to fuel breakout performance – day in, and day out.

Your path to becoming a Top Performer starts here. Jeff Standridge’s amazing insights, based on his 25 years of experience across five continents, will light the path that catapults you beyond your wildest dreams – a life marked by sustained top performance, leading to immense personal fulfillment, financial success, and new opportunities never thought possible.

    The Innovator’s Field Guide: Accelerators for Entrepreneurs, Innovators & Change Agents

    Dr. Standridge knows that in the long run, you must deliver results, but seemingly insurmountable obstacles can stand in the way. Being knowledgeable and experienced isn’t enough. Sooner or later, you’ll encounter a faster changing environment, economic downturns, new technology, a shift in consumer and employee behavior, etc. Innovation isn’t just about doing. It’s about THINKING and DOING in harmony with one another. Unfortunately, the pressures to create, to launch, to run fast often get in the way of deep, true exploration. We don’t explore the world around us (including our own habits & behaviors) for possible innovations. We don’t question our leadership of others. We don’t ask ourselves whether we are headed in the right direction. We don’t honestly assess our own individual performance. As a result, we don’t achieve what we could otherwise.  Successful leaders have learned that innovation doesn’t just solve today’s problems, it produces industry-leading results and outcomes that will outpace the competition. There are books in the marketplace that teach the disciplines of innovation, the processes of entrepreneurship and the methods of organizational change management. What doesn’t exist is a guide for the PERSON who’s leading these innovations.  The Innovator’s Field Guide touches on those disciplines, processes, and methods, and it does so through the lens of the person executing them.

      What OUR CLIENTS & PARTNERS SAY...

      Todd Greer

      todd greer testimonial

      “I have worked with and around Jeff for over a decade. Jeff is a tenacious business leader and attacks challenges with a no-nonsense, thoughtful, innovator’s mindset. Equally important, he is an expert at the “human-factor,” which can completely undermine an academic approach to problem solving, and he interlaces his understanding of psychology and sociology with his many years of practical experience to produce results.”

      Todd Greer
      CEO, SpotRight, Inc.
