303 Mental Toughness & Decision-Making Under Pressure | Confidence, Challenge & Performance

#mentaltoughness #decisionmakingunderpressure #confidenceinability Today, David Charlton is joined by Doug Strycharczyk from AQR International to explore how the 4Cs of Mental Toughness influence decision-making, leadership and performance under pressure. Doug explains why “confidence” is more than just self-belief it also includes interpersonal confidence, which allows people to challenge ideas, avoid groupthink and improve team decision-making. The conversation then moves into “challenge”, looking at risk orientation and learning orientation, and why high performers don’t just take risks they reflect, adapt and grow from them. This episode is especially valuable for athletes, coaches, parents and leaders who want to understand why people respond so differently when the pressure is on.
