They had been working extremely hard for many months but could not <\/span><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">make it on time as a third-party contractor let them down at the very last moment. They all were very disappointed and frustrated. Still, they did not want to give up and tried not to waste any time. They rapidly got on their feet again, and everyone was busy doing many things during multiple long days. In retrospect, most of those activities \u2013 he admitted &#8211; did not make any difference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">THE THREAT OF HYPER-ACTIVITY<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">In hindsight, my coachee described those days as a period of collective disorientation and non-coordinated hyper-activity. For him, it was a completely new experience. Pushed by his line managers to deliver agreed results, he lost his usual capability to see the big picture and communicate clearly. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\"><em>\u201cDon\u2019t try to calm the storm.

Instead, he got more nervous and worried about what his boss would think about him than how to draft a solid alternative plan with the team.\u00a0 He was overwhelmed by the situation. As a result, he and his team created more and more to-do lists, started non-coordinated initiatives, and generated a disconnect between the various working groups and management. Everything with the best intentions in mind and without simply sitting still and thinking through the problem.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">STRATEGIES<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\"> <strong>TO STAY CALM UNDER PRESSURE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">The most critical task of any manager in very stressful, high-pressure, and demanding situations is keeping calm and one&#8217;s shirt on. It&#8217;s not about finding quick solutions in the first place. It&#8217;s about avoiding chaos, stabilizing the situation, and re-injecting self-confidence into the organization. And only afterward looking for adequate solutions. To get around the risk of facing stressed leadership I&#8217;d like to present two formulae that I often refer to in coaching engagements to stay even-tempered and focused during critical times and crises. They are straightforward in concept and with will and repetitive practice also in execution:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a; font-weight: normal;\">The<\/span><\/strong><b> <\/b><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a; font-weight: normal;\">START Formula &#8211;<\/span> <\/strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">This is a preventive concept, i.e. knowing and applying it assists in minimizing the risk of encountering possible \u201cpanic\u201d situations.<b><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a; font-weight: normal;\">The<\/span><\/strong><b> <\/b><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a; font-weight: normal;\">SWITCH Formula \u2013<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0Once you find yourself in a situation where you are about to lose clarity and focus, you better exercise this method to stay on course and keep your cool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">THE<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\"> <em><b>START<\/b><\/em> <strong>FORMULA<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">If you live by the START formula, you significantly reduce the risk of being dragged into situations where you might lose your orientation and temper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">S<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\"> <strong>&#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0Stand Up<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;\"><span style=\"color: #0e101a;\">Make your point and explain your strategy and action plan.
