What The Art Of Performance Llc does

The Art of Performance LLC, founded in 2007 by Jane Frankel, is a privately held professional services consultancy that helps 21st-century organizations build autonomous environments and develop knowledge worker capabilities. The firm's core proposition centers on proprietary behavioral-economics-based frameworks — the Seven Skills of Knowledge Worker Autonomy, the Seven Conditions of an Autonomous Environment, and a Six-step Learning System — delivered through consulting engagements, customized workshops, and certification programs. Its product portfolio includes two Business Expert Press books ('The Intentional Mindset: Data, Decisions, and Your Destiny' in 2023 and 'Building an Autonomous Environment, for Yourself and Your Organization' in 2025), two ten-module workshop series aligned to each book, autonomous project consulting, a knowledge work certification, and free introductory Zoom sessions ('Let's Talk' and 'Lunch 'n Learn').

The firm has no proprietary technology platform; its intellectual property consists of consulting frameworks and educational content. It operates as a solo/small practice (1–10 employees) under Managing Principal Jane Frankel, with no external funding, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. The go-to-market model combines content-led inbound (books, podcasts, articles, Substack, LinkedIn-based Knowledge Work Institute) with event-driven engagement (recurring free sessions) that feeds a project-based and certification-driven services pipeline. Customers are enterprise organizations across IT/software, customer service operations, and university-employer partnerships, with one documented outcome (customer service satisfaction improvement from 5% to 95%) used as a proof point. The firm is registered as an LLC in the USA, headquartered in the Philadelphia, PA area based on phone area code and founder background, with services delivered globally via Zoom and asynchronous formats.
