The HAP Model: Performance Through Relationship Mastery
HAP (Human Accelerated Performance) is a comprehensive accountability model that transforms how people relate to themselves, others, and their environment. Unlike traditional training that focuses only on skills or knowledge, HAP addresses the fundamental human dynamics that determine how effectively people work together.
Our science-backed approach creates lasting behavior change by developing three core relationship domains:
Self-Relationship
- Emotional awareness and regulation
- Personal accountability and ownership
- Self-efficacy and confidence
- Growth mindset development
Others-Relationship
- Clear and authentic communication
- Conflict navigation and resolution
- Trust-building behaviors
Environment-Relationship
- Adaptability to changing conditions
- Systems thinking and awareness
- Resource management and optimization
- Cultural contribution and influence
Through mastery of these domains, individuals gain the foundation to perform at their highest level and teams develop the cohesion to achieve breakthrough results.
Why HAP Works Where Other Training Fails
We transform behavior through experiential learning, not just information transfer
Most professional development focuses on imparting information-but knowledge alone rarely changes behavior. The HAP model works differently:
1. Experiential Learning - We create structured experiences that reveal relationship patterns, allowing participants to feel the impact of their choices rather than just hear about them.
2. Real-time Feedback - Our trained facilitators provide skillful, in-the-moment feedback that helps participants recognize and adjust their behavior patterns as they occur.
3. Practice-Based Mastery - We build in repeated practice opportunities with escalating complexity, ensuring skills become second nature rather than theoretical concepts.
4. Customized Application - Every organization receives a tailored implementation plan that addresses their specific relationship challenges and performance goals.
5. Measurable Outcomes - We establish clear metrics for improvement, tracking both relationship quality and performance outcomes to demonstrate ROI.

Frequently Ask Questions
Most training programs focus on imparting information—HAP focuses on transforming relationships. Our experiential approach creates lasting behavior change by addressing the fundamental human dynamics that determine how effectively people work together.
Many clients report immediate improvements in communication and conflict reduction following initial training. More substantial organizational changes typically emerge over 3-6 months as new behaviors become habitual and systems adapt to improved relationship dynamics.
Not at all. While HAP is highly effective for addressing relationship challenges, many of our clients are high-performing organizations seeking to further enhance their culture and results. The principles of relationship mastery benefit teams at all performance levels.
Unlike traditional surveys that provide periodic snapshots, HAP Check in offers continuous relationship monitoring through brief daily interactions. The platform also provides personalized resources and tracks individual and team progress over time, creating a comprehensive development system rather than just a measurement tool.
Absolutely. Every HAP implementation begins with a thorough discovery process to understand your organization's unique context, challenges, and goals. We then tailor our approach to address your specific needs, ensuring relevance and maximum impact.
