A high-performing team: - is one where both the individuals and the team as a whole are performing to their optimum potential; - is aligned and attuned to your vision for where you want to take the business; - drives the key tasks and aspects of the business to achieve both its short- and long-term objectives. In our eBook, [Managing staff for high performance](https://landing.jpabusiness.com.au/managing-staff-for-high-performance-ebook), we discussed ****6 key elements** that you as a business manager, owner or leader need to think about as you go about your day-to-day activities, **in order to positively manage staff and help develop them into a high-performing team. We've distilled that information into the following cheat sheet.
