high performance culture

Better metrics, more information and perfect routines can make you more fragile when they replace judgement, action and aliveness. Learn how to optimise selectively without optimising your way out of your life. Hyper-optimisation is the attempt to improve every measurable variable, even when tracking and adjusting begin to cost more attention, energy and aliveness than they return. It can create conditional competence, where a person believes they can perform only under ideal conditions. DrP’s alternative is selective optimisation: secure the foundations, use data temporarily to answer defined questions, then build portable excellence that survives ordinary disruption.
