Transform Performance by Mastering the Moments That Matter
THE PERFORMANCE PARADOX: PUSHING HARDER GETS LESS RESULTS
I've sat where your team sits now. In my years working within a large organization, I witnessed firsthand how the relentless pursuit of bottom-line results actually undermined them. One by one, I watched brilliant colleagues stop sharing innovative ideas. Creativity withered under pressure. The urgent constantly overwhelmed the important. Even stopping for lunch and treating our bodies in healthy ways became taboo, further affecting performance.
In today's increasingly chaotic world, this isn't just my story—it's playing out in organizations everywhere:
- 75% of employees report workplace stress affects their mental health
- $300B is lost annually due to workplace stress
- 40% of employee turnover is attributed to stress
- The average executive spends 62% of their workday putting out fires rather than driving growth
With over 20 years of guiding transformation, I've discovered what neuroscience confirms: when we push harder, we get less. But there's another way. In a world of constant disruption and uncertainty, I've synthesized practical, science-backed techniques that can be learned in a single session yet create lasting change in how your team performs under pressure—the perfect antidote to today's chaotic business environment.
