Manage episode 480159972 series 3310389
Welcome to our new 5-part mini-series, where we celebrate Star Wars month by bringing lessons from that galaxy far, far away into our everyday work lives. We’re not travelling too far to discover what the Jedi can teach us about thriving at work.
And this first episode is where we share powerful lessons in handling pressure. Whether you're leading a team, managing conflict, or facing a high-stakes decision, our guest Karl Green (aka The Performance Coach) shares his masterclass inspired by Yoda in staying calm, connected, and in control.
Karl shares practical tips for staying grounded in your inner purpose, even when the pressure's on, and accessing a calm, focused mindset. Starting with taking a breath: think Yoda in the chaos and dial up your emotional intelligence to respond (not react) to others.
Because when you can remain mindful in high-pressure moments, the force will really be with you in how you take the lead with presence and purpose.
"Make the decision, make another. Remake one past, you cannot." Yoda
