The challenge

Pressure shows up in how your leaders treat people.

  1. 01

    A strong performer becomes a manager and snaps at the team whenever a deadline slips.

  2. 02

    Leaders miss the signs of disengagement until a resignation letter arrives.

  3. 03

    Meetings turn tense over small issues because nobody names the frustration underneath.
