He is also the author of the upcoming book Superperformance (September 2025), which reveals eight proven strategies to turn peak moments into everyday excellence. As a speaker, author, and nonprofit advocate, he is passionate about empowering individuals and teams to achieve sustainable success and lasting impact.In this episode, Dan and George Pesansky discuss:The difference between learning theory and applying knowledge in practiceLeadership approaches that prioritize team empowerment over individual recognitionIdentifying and removing barriers that limit personal or organizational performanceStrategies for sustaining long-term improvement and preventing burnoutKey Takeaways:Sustaining long-term success requires deliberately identifying, measuring, and consistently repeating the specific actions and conditions that create positive results, rather than only analyzing problems or failures.The “leaky bucket” concept highlights that organizations waste time and resources when they focus solely on adding new initiatives while ignoring inefficiencies, turnover, and systemic waste that continuously drain performance.Shifting from a “me” style of leadership to a “we” style—where leaders empower teams to operate effectively without constant oversight—creates resilience, sustainability, and stronger organizational outcomes.Focusing on immediate “target conditions,” such as the next exam or milestone, helps individuals and teams build momentum through small, achievable wins, rather than being paralyzed by distant and abstract goals like graduation or retirement. "You can't sustain what you can't explain. So, if you don't know what helps you work, if you don't know what helps you succeed, there's a good chance you won't continue to do it." — George Pesansky Connect with George Pesansky: Website: https://georgepesansky.com/Book: Superperformance: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1639081356LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deliberateimprovement/Twitter: https://x.com/SuperPerformnzConnect with Dan Hollis: Website: www.themagicofselling.netEmail: Danch68@outlook.comBusiness Number: 973-862-8331Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
