Why do even the most talented teams stall when pressure reaches a peak?
In this episode of Work Savvy, Karen is joined by Errol Amerasekera, leadership specialist, author, and Director of Bluestone Edge, to unpack the principles behind his new book, From Fear to Flow: The Adaptive Safety Revolution. Together, they explore why high-performing teams default to defensive, fear-driven behaviours during high-stakes moments and how leaders can shift their culture toward true connection, deep learning, and resilience under pressure.
Errol shares actionable insights into “Adaptive Safety” – a framework designed to go beyond basic psychological safety to help teams speak candidly and adapt swiftly as conditions change. They discuss the micro-behaviours that subtly impact culture, how to maintain high standards without sacrificing trust, and practical strategies for embedding sustainable habits into everyday work.
