Become a Corporate Athlete: Sustaining High Performance in Project Management

Tight deadlines, complex stakeholders, constant changes… 

That sounds relatable to project managers, as we often operate in high-pressure environments. Ever wondered how to sustainably excel at work — and also in life — while dealing with everyday stress and challenges?

This interactive event introduces the Corporate Athlete framework, inspired by the principles in the acclaimed book Corporate Athlete and adapted for project leadership. Participants will get practical insights on how to manage energy and time across four key capacities:

-  Physical: sustain endurance and prevent burnout
-  Emotional: build resilience and regulate pressure
-  Mental: sharpen focus and decision-making
-  Purpose: strengthen motivation and long-term persistence

By the end of the session, you will:

• Understand why and how energy management drives sustainable project performance
• Learn practical techniques to recover faster under stress
• Get guidance on how to develop a personal action plan to perform at a high level without sacrificing well-being

Join us to explore how you can train like an athlete to excel in your PM career!
