Grace Under Pressure

How do some leaders manage pressure while others struggle? Executive coach John Baldoni, host of LinkedIn Live’s Grace Under Pressure interview series, explains how to maintain your composure in stressful situations. Your first priority when pressure hits is to make sure your people are okay. Then, make sure you’re okay – take the deep breath you need. Look as wisely as possible into the future and consider how to prevent today’s stress from compounding. Make sure that whatever happens next will benefit your people, rather than harming them. Baldoni stresses the importance of inculcating courage, compassion, empathy, hope, resilience, and selflessness into your life and the lives of your team members.
