Hyper-achieving CEOs and senior executives know that performance matters. But for many, defining exactly what performance is supposed to look like is a challenge, let alone measuring it, developing the necessary skill sets, and deriving deeper satisfaction from increased performance. This is an even bigger challenge for business leaders preparing for retirement.
My name is John Furth and I help clients deal with day-to-day issues, challenges, and opportunities with less stress, more confidence, and better results. Through two frameworks I’ve developed, “The Owning Tomorrow Performance Model” and “The Six Plus Two P’s of Leadership”, clients discover the importance of accountability, maintaining discipline and good habits, and starting a virtuous cycle of continuous learning.
But the work doesn’t end there. At some point, my clients’ confidence, courage, and commitment increase to such an extent that they find themselves able to achieve greater things than they originally thought. When that happens, they have taken an important first step to transformation, a journey that becomes more exciting and rewarding every day.

There’s an old saying in business – “fail fast and fail often.” In many cases, this is sound advice. But any executive who has been stuck in the middle of a crisis-prone but strategically significant project knows how hard it is to differentiate between short and medium-term issues for which there may be solutions and those painful moments when declaring failure is the right thing to do.
Watch the video above to hear about a framework that helps CEOs and their leadership teams make the best decisions possible when important initiatives run into trouble.
