Creators of VANTASET™

If you are ready to take your organisation to the next level, our revolutionary Strategic Planning and Performance Software is the answer.

Who are we?

We, Steel Performance Solutions, are Australasia’s foremost performance experts and the creators of VANTASET - the most people-focused strategic planning and performance software platform on the market.

What do we do?

We help organisations transform the way they work using tools that were born in high-performance sport and adapted for the business world.

Who do we work with?

Since introducing our Performance Improvement Programmes, we've been invited to help over 50 industry leaders in Science, Engineering, Telecommunications, Banking, Construction, Manufacturing, Education and Law step up to a new, more advanced level of performance. This includes privately-owned companies, global corporations and Government agencies. 

What makes us different?

Thousands of hours of research enabled our principal, Craig Steel, to develop a breakthrough system to help elite athletes win on the world stage. This research, coupled with extensive experience helping CEO’s transform the performance of their business, enabled us to develop VANTASET. In short, our unrivaled understanding of human performance combined with our proven track record of helping organisations revolutionise the way they operate sets our platform apart.

Why Vantaset works
Vantaset works because it's informed by a proven performance improvement system initially designed to help athletes win on the world stage.
Creating champions

Based on his experience assisting elite athletes, Craig (Steel) developed a pathway to help national champions become world-champions.

Since introducing this process, he has helped athletes win over 20 World Cup and World Championship titles earning him a reputation as one of the world’s leading performance specialists.

Sport to business

Because performance is equally critical in business, Craig adapted the process he developed for athletes to assist companies. After extensive testing, he produced a suite of programmes to help organisations transform the performance and productivity of their workforce. 

The first company to deploy one of Craig’s programmes (Telecom Business Directions, now Spark New Zealand) exceeded its growth target of 5% by over 400% proving his process could be applied in business. Since then, we have spent the past decade perfecting our process to enable organisations to extend our proven performance improvement tools out to each and every person in their business.

Our story
Our Performance Improvement Programmes are the life work of our principal and founder, Craig Steel.

Craig is a veteran of the performance industry and considered by many to be Australasia’s foremost performance expert. Two decades ago, Craig made one of the single greatest breakthroughs in international sport by discovering why and how athletes capitulate (choke).

Following his success with athletes, a number of New Zealand’s most respected business leaders asked Craig if he could do for them what he was doing for athletes. The first company that used his process increased its sales by 407% in four months, proving it could be applied in business.

Since then, we’ve spent the past 15 years perfecting our process to help organisations out-perform their competitors.
