What makes high performers stand out from the crowd? LP Partner Russell Shapiro recently sat down with legendary consultant Allan Koltin for an in-depth video conversation, "High Performers: How to Identify and Grow Your Superstars".

High performers plant a lot of seeds to build their network of relationships.
