Leverage Your Mind, Brain and Physiology to Perform Your Best at Work

In this episode of Sal Silvester on the Future of Leadership, Dr. Gavriel (Gav) Schneider takes us inside the core of his Presilience framework by focusing on three foundational enablers of high performance: the mind, brain, and body. We explore how leaders can build psychological readiness, harness neuroscience for better decision-making, and optimize physical wellbeing to sustain performance under pressure. Dr. Gav shares powerful insights on stress inoculation, chunking, and how to manage the body’s fight-or-flight response. We also discuss the “seesaw effect” between emotional and factual thinking—and how it impacts conflict, strategy, and communication.
