A High Performance Culture
An excellent post from the CEO of Idea Couture, Idris Mootee. I couldn’t agree more on his stance in regards to “management”.
When you build a high performance culture, no one needs to manage anyone. You pick not only smart people but also people that have a passion for success, strong analytic mind and/or creative self expression somewhere deep inside them. They are not managers and not aspire to be one. They are good coaches and leaders. They want to be part of something big, bigger than an individual, meaningful, to make a contribution, and to find fulfillment in what they do. You can only inspire, coach and support them, there’s nothing to manage. If you’re telling me you are actively managing your top people, then these yearnings are often managed out of people in the unrelenting quest for predictable mediocrity or satisfactorily under performance.
This view is one of the main reasons the Cameesa team is a team. We all pull our weight and are passionate about Cameesa. I think if anyone on the team had to manage someone else we’d be in big trouble. But since we are tightly knit group that works synergistically together we keep moving along and improving Cameesa. Not to mention that we all complement each other very well in terms of skill sets.
