ABOUT HUMAN CURRENT

FROM PRACTICE
TO
HUMAN PERFORMANCE.

Human Current brings a people and systems perspective to human performance.

Built from more than fifteen years in business and HR, the company connects how people develop with the conditions around their performance.

WHY HUMAN CURRENT

BUILT WHERE
PEOPLE & SYSTEMS
MEET.

Human Current grew from years of working where people, performance and organisations meet.

Business and HR provided a close view of how performance changes as roles and responsibility develop.

Work with leaders and organisations showed how strongly the environment can influence what a person is able to bring.

Human Current brings those perspectives together in human performance development.

MISSION & VISION

WHAT WE
ARE BUILDING
TOWARDS.

MISSION

DEVELOP THE HUMAN CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE.

Human Current develops the human conditions that determine whether capability can become performance.

VISION

DEVELOP HUMAN PERFORMANCE AS DELIBERATELY AS TECHNICAL CAPABILITY.

We believe the human conditions behind performance deserve the same attention as the expertise people are expected to deliver.

OUR TERRITORY

THE HUMAN
CONDITIONS OF
PERFORMANCE.

Human Current works in the space between capability and performance.

What someone can do matters. So does whether that capability remains available in the situation that asks for it.

Our work focuses on the human conditions that influence that availability and how those conditions develop as demands change.

HUMAN CONDITION → AVAILABLE CAPABILITY → PERFORMANCE → OUTCOME → IMPACTEXPLORE OUR APPROACH
CORE PRINCIPLES

PRINCIPLES
THAT GUIDE
THE WORK.

They shape how Human Current looks at performance, evidence, responsibility and collaboration.

01

HUMAN BEFORE MODEL.

We begin with the person and the demands around them before choosing a model, measure or intervention.

02

EVIDENCE WITH JUDGEMENT.

Research, assessment and data sharpen the work. They do not replace understanding the person.

03

PERFORMANCE WITH RESPONSIBILITY.

High standards and responsible practice belong together.

04

OWN THE CONDITIONS. CONNECT THE REST.

Human Current stays focused on the human conditions of performance and connects specialist expertise where it adds value.
