Marc Haine explains how to recognize your feelings and pause before reacting, letting your prefrontal cortex override your amygdala. He covers managing anger in business and temporarily setting emotions aside to perform, then processing them later.
It's about recognizing that you feel things and pressing pause. It's about making sure our prefrontal cortex, the thinking part of our brain, is smarter than that little amygdala that wants to fire off and think we're in danger. So, if in a business case, if you came to me with an unrealistic expectation and I'm really angry and all I want to do in the moment is tell you, screw you. I don't want to do the project. So, there are times that yeah, you might. In that case with the keynote, I did have to park my emotions. I had a job to do and then afterwards, I grieved.
