S11E16: Leading Under Pressure: How the Best Leaders Navigate Pressure for Themselves and Show Up for Others

Guest:

Amar Dhall

Psychotherapist and Leadership Researcher (Nervous System Regulation Under Pressure)

Amar Dhall is a psychotherapist and leadership researcher focused on what happens inside people when pressure is on. He works at the intersection of leadership, psychology, trauma-informed practice, and nervous system science, helping executives and leadership teams stay coherent in high-stakes moments.

Amar is the founder of Neuro-Somatic Leadership, a framework that treats leadership development as training state under load — so clarity, judgment, and relational capacity remain available when it matters most.

We discuss what pressure is, how it affects us as leaders and the consequences of both being able to handle the pressure, and those who cannot. How that impacts themselves and others. With examples and tips for leaders to better handle stress and lead with confidence through tough times, with others.
