We all get hijacked at times, but great leaders know themselves well,
anticipate situations that may be stressful for them and take
preventative measures.
In the stressful moment, they know what they
are feeling AND thinking. They then have multiple constructive
solutions to handle the amygdala hijack and maintain their top
performance.
The biggest hurdle to overcome will always be the perception of an insult, real or imagined.
It's the 'dissing' thing that rears up and can put people in a box six feet under.
