Performance pressure is often seen as an individual problem—something related to resilience, mindset, or stress tolerance.
But in practice, we see something different:
- teams that are under constant pressure
- employees who only speak up when it's already too late
- well-intentioned welfare initiatives that do not alleviate the underlying pressure
In this webinar, we’ll look at performance pressure from a different angle—not as an employee’s problem, but as an interplay between the individual, the team, and the organization. Occupational psychologist Sarah Kintaert will outline how performance pressure arises, what factors can and cannot increase it, and what specific roles managers and HR play in this context.
Next, Tom Lauwereins, Safety, Health & Environment Advisor at Cegeka, will walk you through their approach. How does an organization with over 7,000 employees in an industry with high expectations and tight deadlines deal with performance pressure? What choices did they make, what works, and what turned out to be more difficult than expected?
You'll receive:
✅ Understanding how performance pressure arises and escalates
✅ Recognizing cues in behavior, communication, and collaboration
✅ Practical ways to provide clarity and guidance to your team
✅ Tools you can put to use right away as an HR professional or manager
This webinar is for anyone who wants their employees to perform well and stay healthy, but finds that striking that balance can sometimes be difficult.
