I have just been examining a fascinating book called JUST ENOUGH ANXIETY by Robert H.

- Purpose and Values
- Productive Relationships
- Shared Direction
- Creativity and Innovation
- Performance Excellence
Each indicator specifies a crucial strength an organisation needs to produce superior business results. And each one offers clear opportunities to do something today that will improve results over time.
Here's the graphic summarising the arguments:
