EXCEPTIONAL: Performance to Sort the Best from the Rest

by T.K. Harris

It's lonely at the top. It's also poorly understood. Science used to ignore the exceptionally high performers. They skewed the data. They didn't fit the usual explanations. They didn't respond to the usual techniques. That all changed around 20 years ago, when performance science first showed how much human achievement could be enhanced by studying those at the top, and by applying the right neuropsychological models and techniques to help them even further. As a neuropsychiatrist, Dr TK Harris has had the privilege of working with some truly exceptional individuals and teams from business, sports, and industry. The take-home lesson? "The 21st century is the era of differentiation. It belongs not to those who are OK at many things, but to those who are distinctly great at just a few. Helping clients get there, and showing them how to stay there without exhaustion or burnout, is the privilege and pleasure of the performance consultant." This book is like a mental toolkit to help discover, achieve and maintain exceptionality. It's written in a simple, engaging style, designed to help learning, repetition and steady growth. Apply the lessons within, and make it happen. Free partner material, additional media, online courses and live coaching sessions can be accessed at drtkharris.org
