Pressure Cooker Confidence

 Performance Under Pressure

Kevin Sweeney helps organizations and teams perform positively and excel when they are under pressure.

Do you feel you are under pressure constantly?

How well do you perform in today's high pressure world?

Is your team prepared to handle being in the "hot seat"?

Does performance drop when your team is faced with unexpected changes?             

Give you and your team and/or clients the strategies and tools to have peak performance when they are under pressure in today's world.

Kevin Sweeney has experienced all these feelings as a combat pilot in two wars, where he was awarded the United State Air Force Distinguished Flying Cross, as a successful Executive for a Fortune 50 company, and as an all-conference collegiate basketball player.

Kevin is the only person to have successfully landed a KC-135, the military version of the Boeing 707 four engine jet, after the two engines on his left wing came completely off the airplane while in flight.  He did it at night, at maximum weight, and on a Desert Storm combat mission.

 

Kevin's high energy style puts the audience in the cockpit with him all the while showing amazing photos of his airplane, you get in trouble with him in the airplane, then we begin the journey of learning peak performance under pressure using comparisons between the flight crew occupation and strategies in comparison to our professional and personal lives.  The audience experiences the engines physically coming off the airplane at the very end of the presentation when a spectacular picture of Kevin's crippled airplane is displayed.

Kevin's engaging presence allows him to effectively share the knowledge he obtained while under life and death pressure to help organizations and teams perform positively and learn to excel when they are under pressure.  His Pressure Cooker Confidence™ 5 step strategy delivers a concrete process to create the skills and behaviors individuals and teams need to invest in proper preparation, have a passionate interest in results and foster the intense focus required to use pressure to enhance productivity.  Through passionate use of the strategy your team will expect to achieve even under extreme pressure.  The will get the job done and have fun doing it.
