High Performance Groups in the Organization
The Hudson Highland Center for High Performance performed research among 600 US and 2000 knowledge workers outside the USA and found that one of the biggest differentiators between high-performing and non-performing workgroups is that the leaders of the high performance groups protect their group from the larger company "so that we can do our work".
