How to stay in your PFC when managing difficult people and conflicting demands.
In this episode of 'Master Stress with Dr. S,' Dr. Safia Debar, a stress expert and founder of RQ Wellness, discusses how HR leaders and executives can lead with clarity, control, and performance without succumbing to stress and burnout. She delves into the concept of crisis reactivity, explaining how high-stress situations trigger the amygdala, leading to miscommunication and loss of credibility in organizations. Dr. Debar shares practical strategies like the physiological sigh, tactical reframing, and post-conflict recovery techniques to maintain calm and effective leadership. She emphasizes the importance of self-regulation and the impact of a leader's emotional state on their team. The episode wraps up the series on 'The Brain at Work' and hints at the next mini-series focused on training your brain to see opportunities and redesigning work with neuroscience.
