The Executive Performance Guide

The Executive Performance Guide brings the system behind Built By Norman together in one document: the challenge, the solution, the NORTHSTAR Method™ and three tools you can use today.

What is in the Guide

Tool 1: The Self-Leadership Audit

Are you still leading yourself, or only reacting to what the day demands of you?

Why am I empty before the day is over?

Tool 2: The Structure vs. Intention Filter

Does what you do rest on a structure, or on good intentions?

How do I stay in shape when my calendar isn’t mine?

Tool 3: The NORTHSTAR Contrast Tool

Compensation or alignment? A 60-second reality check.

Where did the man go that I used to be?

The NORTHSTAR Method™

Three levels, from identity to action, and the North Star Exercise.

How does the NORTHSTAR Method work?
