TIGNUM

The approach to my career has been, at times, pretty unsustainable. During an episode of burnout nearly 8 years ago, I became friends with one of the most visionary leaders I know, Jogi Rippel who together with Scott Peltin, founded TIGNUM with the ambition of helping leaders achieve sustainable human performance or #regenerativeleadership as we’re now starting to call it together. I have been very lucky to be coached by the extremely talented and always patient Laura Penhaul from the TIGNUM team for over a year now, working on becoming that regenerative leader myself as well as a more present, gentle parent. You can follow the link below to listen to some of the insights from the journey so far. It’s messy and it will forever be unfinished but it is a far cry from where I was 8 years ago. Thank you TIGNUM team ❤️

Rachel Vickery, an esteemed performance coach to business leaders and elite professionals, was at our B-LD KITCHEN to underscore a vital aspect of peak performance: breathing. She emphasized the significance of all 20,000 breaths we take daily in regulating our state and maintaining control. For business professionals, effective breathing is more than a relaxation technique—it’s a performance tool. It enhances focus and also improves decision-making abilities under pressure. Discover more about the transformative power of breathing on professional performance.

Learning new things as you age has clear performance benefits for your brain and personal recovery. It stimulates your brain, building new neural connections to help prevent cognitive decline. Learning can also help spark your curiosity and motivation and help you take yourself less seriously as you lean into a growth mindset. Learning something that challenges your brain in a different way from your usual can provide a unique source of recovery. For example, if your day is full of back-to-back meetings, fast processing, fire drills, and multi-tasking, shifting gears to learn something that requires creativity and imagination could be greatly rewarding. At TIGNUM, we encourage you to think about what new things you’d like to learn by the end of this year. Go about learning them with child-like curiosity, no fear of failure, and completely free of judgment.

If we told you the world is hard right now, filled with monumental challenges and uncertainty, would you agree? All signs point to yes. Yet, as we scroll through company websites, internal communications, and social media posts, we see stock photos of smiling faces, perfect diversity, and ice cream in the lobby. The screenwriter and master storyteller Robert McKee calls this rosy portrayal "negaphobia." It hides reality and fosters fragility, preventing us from addressing real issues. Sometimes, you need to embrace the suck to change it. Simply put, you can't change what you can't face. Extreme jobs are demanding and emotionally draining. Ice cream and meditation alone won't solve that. You need tough conversations, real solutions for your demanding challenges, and a clear vision of success. You need to make different choices. At TIGNUM, our mantra is to look at the facts, tell the truth, and create solutions based on the real world and its challenges. Two questions to reflect on: _Do you have negaphobia in your team culture? _Do you have a clear picture of what success could look like? __ #Embracethesuck #TeamCulture #Innovation #TIGNUM

While revisiting a workshop notebook we crafted a decade ago for a client, we stumbled upon a profound reminder: "A mindset is contagious." This simple yet powerful statement sparks a crucial reflection on human performance. Every day, your mindset shapes your thoughts, actions, and those around you. Are you fostering a mindset that uplifts, motivates, and drives progress or hinders it? As we delve deeper into the science of human performance, it's clear that the attitudes we carry and share are pivotal. Your mindset can transform challenges into opportunities and setbacks into stepping stones. Ask yourself: What type of mindset am I infecting others with? Is it one of resilience, solution focus, and growth? Let's ensure your mindset contributes positively to your environment, enhancing performance for yourself and your teams.

At TIGNUM, impact is defined by three key factors every business professional can influence: Functional Readiness (knowledge), Role Readiness (talent & experience), and Personal Readiness (how you show up). Here's a simple formula to help understand it: Impact = (Functional Readiness Role Readiness) x Personal Readiness Personal Readiness is the multiplier that elevates your impact. Without it, you're leaving potential on the table. Sadly, this is often missing in many of us, which is why we focus on enhancing Personal Readiness. Personal Readiness means being mentally, emotionally, and physically prepared to: _Navigate high load, intensity, complexity, and paradox _Overcome challenges, setbacks, and hurdles _Inspire belief in yourself, your team, and your strategy _Multiply energy within your team, enabling them to excel _Consistently perform at a high level, especially when it matters most Learn how TIGNUM can help you enhance your Personal Readiness and excel in every aspect of your professional life.

In preparation for the Paris Olympics, Stevie Morrison and his team spent weeks in Marseille, testing their strategies under various conditions. They rigorously assessed the weather, set priorities, and implemented decisions, then ran races to validate their theories. This methodical approach allowed them to refine and perfect their tactics continually. Why is this relevant for you? Like in sailing, companies often find themselves constantly in execution mode, running "five races a day" with little room for practice. But what if taking the time to experiment and test could lead to better performance and breakthrough innovation? Let's consider making space for experimentation as crucial as execution. What if businesses' relentless pace is just an excuse to avoid the risks associated with preparation and innovation? Perhaps the fear of failure holds you back more than the challenges themselves.
