Art’s primary program and upcoming book, Competent is Not an Option, deals with an unrecognized need—most organizations do a brilliant job of producing competent contributors but a miserable job of developing consummate professionals. Today’s unquestioned talent and leadership development approaches run counter to extensive elite performance research, which emphasizes deliberate practice as the factor that distinguishes experts in any field.
This enormous deficiency in developing talent became evident when Art experienced a confluence of wakeup calls involving ventures into sports, a rare field where deliberate practice is the customary approach to talent development. At age 55, Art took up a new hobby, sprinting, where his deliberate practice regimen enabled him to tap into hidden reserves of physical capacity compete in masters tracknational meets, and achieve an All American standard time in the indoor 60- meter dash for his age group.

"Imagine what it’s
like after decades
of professional speaking on exceptional performance to realize that I wasn’t coming close to recognizing my full potential in my physical capacity, professional skill proficiency, and even in my marriage.
I invite you to be courageous and ask the question, “Where in my life am I settling for being competent, expedient, or reasonable, with the result being that I never discover and express my full talent? Asking that question has been a marvelous gift, a second wind to my career and life.
