What do you think categorizes a high performing team or individual?

Question

Curious how you'd evaluate a team or person to have high performance. What would you want to measure? Are people skills more important, communication, skills / ability, speed etc?

Besides the expected technical skills, knowing what to say, who to say and how to say is super important i.e. your communication skills. With more people going remote written communication skills have become crucial as well.

From my vantage point in sales engineering team, its a mix of all those because they are tied to 1) sales outcomes, and 2) sales efficiency. We want to have high quality engagements that lead to contracts and the faster we can turn around quality PoCs to customers, the better our odds.

We use the S.M.A.R.T approach and then we define and agree on KPIs aligned with the network automation strategy, report on agreed KPIs to management and other stakeholders, and then optimize and review the KPIs in case we need to make adjustments.

We might look at the time it takes to run a use case through our KPI framework to better understand the groups efficiency.

In all stages, we have ppl who are asking "the right questions" and looking at how quickly ppl find answers.

One aspect of a high performer imo includes an ability to solve problems that are not explicitly laid out in a particular project assignment. In other words, an ability to recognize potential flaws in a plan and communicating these to the team/manager rather than blindly implementing a solution.
