High Performing Individuals
Within a Team
ABOUT THIS COURSE
This course explores what it means to be a high performing individual within a team. Rather than focusing on organisational structures or technical ability, Professor Steve Peters looks at the emotional skills and behaviours that help individuals contribute positively within a team environment. The focus is on self-reflection, accountability, communication, emotional management, and aligning yourself with
the values and processes of the team.
Throughout the course, Steve explains how high performing individuals regularly appraise themselves, manage their emotions effectively, support others within the team, and contribute to a positive and constructive environment. The aim is not perfection, but developing the awareness and emotional skills needed to help both yourself and the team perform consistently well.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
This course explores the emotional skills and behaviours that contribute to high performance within a team. The focus is on self-reflection, accountability, communication, emotional management, and learning how to contribute positively to the collective environment.
The course explores the importance of being accountable to yourself and to the team. This includes taking ownership of your role, following through on commitments, and responding constructively when things do not go to plan.
Once part of a team, high performing individuals align themselves with the agreed values, processes, and ways of working. Steve explains why committing to the collective approach is essential for team success.
The ability to manage your Chimp, reset yourself, and return to a good place consistently is a key emotional skill within high performing teams. The course explores how reflection and perspective help maintain stability and performance.
Steve highlights how communication can either support or damage a team environment. The course looks at assertiveness, passive aggression, silence, and the importance of addressing issues constructively.
High performing individuals see themselves as part of the team rather than separate from it. The focus is on encouraging others, avoiding judgement, and contributing to a supportive and constructive culture.
The course explores the difference between energy givers and energy sappers, and how attitude, communication, and emotional management influence the atmosphere and performance of the team.

Energy Giver
By Nigel June 2, 2026
The energy giver part was very helpful. I am the CEO, so I am often working with sub team in the organisation. It can be easy to become critical and suck the energy out of the team. This was useful in helping me think through approaches.
