Pressure, By Design
A leadership framework for sustaining high performing professionals under constant pressure
Pressure never simply disappears after an event, because each one either deposits capability into a team or withdraws from it. That makes leadership the variable that decides whether your people grow stronger through a demanding season or slowly wear down. Pressure, By Design is a leadership framework and workbook that helps you design how pressure enters, moves through and exits your team long before the next high stakes moment arrives.
It is written for head coaches, performance staff and senior leaders in professional sport, as well as executives and leaders in medicine, military command and emergency services where decisions matter and errors carry real cost. If you lead people who work under constant pressure and want a practical way to protect their performance while holding the standard where it belongs, this workbook was built for you.
What your $19 investment includes
The Pressure Pathway, a five stage model from trigger to outcome with a leadership touchpoint at each stage
The four distortion patterns that lead capable leaders to amplify pressure, each paired with its correction
Recovery treated as a performance variable through four recovery dimensions and three design principles
Three design prompts along with a decision rights and escalation model you set up before pressure arrives
Six field tools including a scored self assessment and system audit, an after action review and decision rights matrix, a recovery planner and a premortem workshop
Guided reflection pages and a research appendix with full references
You receive the full 31 page A4 workbook as an instant PDF download that you can print as often as you need or complete on screen. You can work through it on your own or take the design sections into a session with your leadership team. For organisations that want to embed the framework across their staff, facilitated ST Performance sessions are available through stperformanceglobal.com.
