English term
is this sentence correct?
English
Bus/Financial

Shared mindset
- To what extent does our organization have a culture or identity that reflects what we stand for and how we work that is shared by both customers and employees?
Accountability
- ***To what extent are we able to ensure execution though a mindset that high performance matters here?***
These questions appear in a audit concerning organizational capabilities. I have problems figuring out the structure of the second one.

Sorry but that doesn't make sense. Performance is a singular noun.

: "Now that performance does matter in our organisation" = "Until now, it didn't matter much.".... An unlikely statement, to say the least.// "Handsome"? Me?...You're joking, n'est-ce pas?

I think the author wants to question how successful the organization will be in establishing or enforcing ("execution") accountability when a mindset that values high performance is instilled in everyone's -- what else -- mind. :)
