From survival mode to performance mode

How leaders shape conditions that shift teams from tension to clearer thinking.

When people feel under threat or pressure, their brains shift into survival mode - limiting creativity, focus and collaboration. This session explores the neuroscience behind stress and safety at work and helps people understand how workplace environments, cultures and behaviours directly influence whether we operate in survival mode or performance mode.
