What Is Breakthrough Performance?
Breakthrough Performance is extraordinary performance that generates breakthrough results. It always begins with fully aligned teams that operate with total ownership and accountability.
When your team communicates courageously, operates with high trust, fully owns the strategy, and executes tenaciously and effectively, your organisation becomes capable of achieving outcomes beyond expectations.
Why Most Teams Underperform
Most organisations are filled with talented and committed people, yet they still struggle to achieve their full potential.
The issue is rarely capability. More often, teams are simply:
- Misaligned
- Lacking full accountability
- Avoiding difficult and courageous conversations
- Lacking cohesion and trust
- Operating in silos rather than a shared purpose
- Owning their own area and success, rather than standing in the bigger picture
- Working hard but executing ineffectively
The result is frustration, cynicism, compromise, performance that falls short of what the organisation is truly capable of achieving and ultimately stalled growth and success.

What others say about working with Gershon Mader & Quantum Performance Inc
I engaged Gershon in to help raise the performance of the EMEA region at Ciena shortly after the acquisition of Nortel’s MEN division.
Our challenge was to integrate two organizations with different cultures and create a positive, cohesive mindset whilst dealing with complex workforce reductions across multiple European countries.
Gershon worked with us for over a year. The first impact of Gershon’s work was on my leadership team.
Gershon, we finished our quarter (very late last night) and I wanted to share with you the good news: we exceeded our plan for the first time in over a year! This is our first breakthrough 🙂
There is no doubt in my mind this comes from a super motivated team executing together, and the Transformation and Breakthrough Session with you was a key step toward this.
Thanks, for all your support!
In taking up my role, I was faced with both a challenge and the opportunity of having a new leadership team… many of my colleagues had not worked together, were located in different parts of the world and were very focused on their individual areas of the business.
After working with Gershon I can say with conviction the team has strengthened considerably – relationships have developed, communications have become more open and, as a result, trust has deepened.

The Nod That’s Killing Your Organization
/in Leadership DevelopmentMost leaders have never seen genuine commitment up close. They’ve seen compliance so polished it looks identical, and that’s precisely what makes it lethal. Compliance feels like alignment from the front of the room. People nod, ask reasonable questions and leave without objecting. They call it a productive meeting, schedule the follow-up, and move on. Somewhere between the boardroom and their desks, your strategy becomes something they’ll execute adequately and avoid owning completely, attributing it to someone else’s decision when it falls short. This isn’t cynicism. It’s the operating reality of most organizations, including yours. The Mirror Nobody Wants to Look At I worked with a CEO who genuinely believed in open, direct conversation. He […]
