The GRID

In his book Winning, Jack Welch pointed to three types of people in an organization.

15% are top performers creating a competitive edge necessary to propel itself into the future. 15% are lower performers needing to either improve or be replaced. The remaining 70% are the backbone of organizations and responsible for making the business work. Good leadership will guide teams toward the upper grid on a mode of continuous improvement.

We get more of wherever we focus our energies. Lower grid or upper.
