Recommendation
Whether you’re an Olympic athlete, a sales rep or a college student, your ability to handle pressure affects your success – or lack thereof. As Henry Kissinger said: “A diamond is a chunk of coal that did really well under pressure.” Pressure is a reality of life. You can’t avoid it, but you shouldn’t let it control or crush you. Instead, learn to understand it, so you can use it to your advantage. In The Power of Pressure, keynote speaker and CEO of Third Factor, Dane Jensen, offers up techniques to help you learn to recognize, harness and take the heat out of pressure moments.
