Why is that some individuals are consistently high performers, how do they keep performing in varying situations, organisations and contexts, why can some people just not seem to be able to crack that code, and why do some individuals perform exceptionally well in certain organisations but not in others? This fresh new book challenges current thinking about the war for talent and the role intelligence plays in high performance sport and business. Over 3,000 profiles of elite corporate managers and professional elites have been studied to find the answers as to why certain individuals consistently get exceptional results and why great talent doesn't transfer across teams and businesses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFit\u003c\/i\u003e considers real live cases and well-known examples of spectacular successes and failures through the lens of the Hogan Personality Tools. This shows how elite performance is dependent on three things; understanding what role your behaviours are best suited to, what culture you perform your best in and how you're likely to derail your career. Armed with this knowledge, this innovative text allows you to connect the dots on your past performances and prepares you to find roles, organisations and teams which best fit you - opening the door for elite performance. Instead of talent management and changing behaviour, look to \u003ci\u003eFit\u003c\/i\u003e as a key to your performance improvement. You'll find that performance does not have a one-size-fits-all formula - it is bespoke, personal and different for each individual.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnderstand how you can align your natural style with the right roles to achieve elite performance in your professional and personal lives\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAppreciate your unique behavioural patterns that impact personal and team success\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscover that true success is not totally dependent on talent and intelligence, but on discovering what you're good at and where you fit.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFit: When Talent and Intelligence Just Won't Cut It\u003c\/i\u003e unearths the hidden traits of elite performance and enables you to find your fit to further enhance your engagement and success.\u003c\/p\u003e About the author xi \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eForeword xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction xvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Talent is not the answer 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 The cost of performance failure 23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 The impact of personality on performance 39\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II 55\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Appreciating your bright side 57\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Embracing and managing your dark side 95\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Recognising what’s driving you from the inside 159\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III 207\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Finding the right fit 209\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Team analytics 225\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Start from where you are 231\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion 243\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 245\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWARREN KENNAUGH\u003c\/b\u003e is a behavioural strategist specialising in the identification and development of elite performance.
