In this key role, Sir Clive will be partnering with KultraLab to guide its clients towards achieving high-performance excellence. The wealth of experience and expertise he brings will be instrumental in shaping the development of Kultra, their AI coaching tool.

One of the exciting initiatives involving Sir Clive is serving as the Chair of an upcoming report titled ‘The Secret DNA of High-Performing Teams’. This report is in collaboration with KultraLab, the World Retail Congress and the University of Manchester.

The research will be exploring the cultural and behavioural drivers of high-performing teams within the retail and consumer sector. Over 15 global retail organisations are committing to participating in this ground-breaking research.

The aim of the research is to provide organisations with a valuable framework and measurement index for high-performance behaviours. This framework will enable businesses to benchmark themselves against their competitors, paving the way for enhanced performance and productivity. The report’s findings are being presented at the World Retail Congress in Paris in April 2024.

Commenting on his role, Sir Clive said, “I am really excited to be partnering with the team at KultraLab. Our businesses share a strong alignment, particularly in our shared commitment to creating high-performing teams and making coaching accessible to everyone. I am genuinely excited to be contributing to the upcoming report, offering businesses a blueprint for understanding the key behaviours that create high-performing teams and how these can be applied across the entire organisation. It will offer some truly fascinating insights.”
