When a business emergency strikes a company, and time is critical, leaders must perform flawlessly. In these high pressure short-duration times, poor performance can cost a company millions of dollars, months of bad PR, and long-lasting stress. In our research we have found that most companies leave the performance of their team leaders in these emergencies to chance. They assume that the problem solvers will perform flawlessly regardless of their fatigue, stress, malnutrition, or other performance barriers. Tignum collaborates with leaders to devise ways to build human performance emergency response strategies and procedures.
