What's Your Capacity Gap?
-
Fatigue
Only 56% of employees feel physically energized at work.*
Organizations are becoming more aware of the high cost of fatigue on employee focus, creativity, and performance.
*May 2016, The Energy Audit for Working America, The Energy Project & Zogby Analytics (n=1,100)
-
Fear
58% of CEOs are concerned about lack of trust as a threat to the growth and success of their organizations.**
Fear prompts people to narrowly focus on defending their value at the expense of creating value for their organizations.
**PricewaterhouseCoopers. "20th CEO Survey - PwC Global." PwC. (n=1,379)
-
Distraction
Nearly 50% of employees find their meetings unfocused and inefficient.*
Absorbed focus is more difficult than ever. Distraction undermines performance and creative thinking.
*May 2016, The Energy Audit for Working America, The Energy Project & Zogby Analytics (n=1,100)
-
Disengagement
Only 34% of employees feel a strong connection to their company's mission.*
The result is low energy, inattention to detail and quality, lack of commitment, and high turnover.

The Science of High Performance
Our early inspiration came from work with professional athletes, who were struggling with performance challenges that defied technical solutions. Almost invariably, their problems took the form of insufficient capacity in at least one of four energy dimensions: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual (the energy of purpose).
The Energy Project’s work draws deeply on neuroscience, physiology, psychology, and perennial philosophy to provide a uniquely integrated method for addressing human performance challenges. In simple terms, we help people and organizations spend more time in the “Performance Zone™” – drawing on the best of themselves – and less in the “Survival Zone™” – to which we default in the face of fear and fatigue.
