Sustaining Executive Performance Summary

Sustaining Executive Performance: How the New Self-Management Drives Innovation, Leadership, and a More Resilient World by Steven P. MacGregor

Thousands of executives have discovered a powerful truth: the best way to improve your performance is to improve your health and well being. Now, top executive coach Steven MacGregor helps you leverage this truth in your life and your business.

MacGregor brings together breakthrough insights and techniques he's honed through seven years pioneering the internationally-renowned Sustaining Executive Performance (SEP) program, and working with hundreds of leading executives worldwide. In Sustaining Executive Performance, he reveals the profound connections between living a more sustainable, happy, and productive life and improving your organization on metrics ranging from innovation to resilience.

MacGregor addresses core business themes including design thinking, continuous innovation, and corporate social responsibility. Next, he shows how to apply all five elements of the SEP program in your own life: MOVE, RECOVER, FOCUS, FUEL, and TRAIN. Finally, he offers specific guidance for changing your own habits in areas ranging from sleep to meetings and communication.

Throughout you'll find interviews with leading executives and experts. Each interview offers specific takeaways you can use to become a more effective leader - and a more fulfilled human being.

Sustaining Executive Performance Reviews

The best companies make the most of their most precious resource-human capital. Sustaining Executive Performance offers concrete guidance and a compelling rationale on how to achieve that. Critically, MacGregor shows that the responsibility for health and performance rests with ourselves and that this enhanced self-management enables us to exert a positive influence on those around us to create highperforming organizations.
-Bernardo Quinn, Global Chief Human Resources Officer, Telefonica

Here at last is a book that hardwires sustainability to the individual and shows clearly the way in which we may all contribute to a future world that is about more and better, not less and compromised. MacGregor presents a vision of executive health that is immediately applicable, practical, and grounded in sound business rationale-thereby making a significant contribution to sustainable value creation for the self, enterprise, and society.
-Peter Lacy, Managing Director and Partner, Strategy & Sustainability Services, Asia Pacific Region, Accenture

How you execute, and feel, as a leader changes throughout your career and is dependent upon many factors in your work and life. Sustaining Executive Performance brings together historic wisdom and modern research to set out the basis for sustained and effective leadership. MacGregor presents a compelling case for looking after one's self that will sit with other critical business requirements, for even the most skeptical of minds. This book provides sound advice and reasoning on how to tune your body and mind to provide improved performance throughout your career.
-Andrew Fenton, Vice President, Oracle UK, Ireland and Israel

In our ever-complex world, organizations need to be thinking about all aspects of the health of their business.

-Nathan Waterhouse, Cofounder and Managing Director of IDEO's Collaborative Innovation Platform, OIEngine.com
