One of the biggest challenges that managers have is guiding their teams to maximize performance. Particularly given workgroups that include remote workers, there has been an increased interest in work-tracking software, more measurable performance, and quality indicators.
The research shows that productivity has nonetheless fallen, and job dissatisfaction and burnout continue to rise like never before. It boils down to this: to increase performance in a sustainable fashion, employee well-being has to be part of the mix.
BolsterUp is one of the first coaching and consultancy firms to focus on building both performance and well-being. Founded by Bruce Alfred, BolsterUp draws on over a decade of experience to help individuals, managers, and teams to overcome barriers, improve mindsets, and work at their highest levels.
In a recent conversation, Bruce mentioned that the first question he and his team always ask clients is, “Do you perform better when you feel better?” Though the team already knows the answer, this question provokes thought within their clients. It particularly makes them think about how they have prioritized output over well-being, which often leads to reduced performance.
The BolsterUp team works closely with their clients to help create attainable well-being goals that align with personal and company objectives. Ultimately, every strategy set by the BolsterUp team is done to accelerate performance and concurrently create higher well-being.
The team has seen significant success from its various programs. Though success looks different for every firm, this can include improving employee engagement, retention rates, and productivity, as well as boosting revenue and customer satisfaction.
On top of working to improve performance and well-being, Bruce has helped managers and employees rediscover their passion for their work. He guides clients to create a purpose-led, positive workplace where employees work to their strengths. As a result, employers and employees feel more optimistic, motivated, and ready to take on challenges.
The BolsterUp model has helped teams, organizations, individual employees, as well as athletes, surgeons, and students to all successfully optimize performance.
If you are looking to improve your performance or collective results, you can reach out to Bruce and the BolsterUp team at any time to get started.
