Why is it that we are able to exhibit superior performance in some situations, but struggle to create similar moments of performance virtuosity in others? Why do we sometimes excel in practice or rehearsal situations, but then choke when our big moment of performance arrives? It's not because we forget how to perform or lose our knowledge or ability, but rather, it’s because incorrect thinking corrupts the mindset that optimizes our performance. Do you really understand what leads to this mental self-sabotage and how you can stop it?

At Ad Standards' Annual General Meeting, Dr. Jacques Dallaire, a noted performance expert and founder of Performance Prime , will explain how humans mentally process information and how the way that we do influences how we feel, behave, and ultimately how we perform. His powerful "Rules of the Mental Road" framework holds the key to understanding where anxiety comes from in the competitive business environment and how we can shape our dominant thoughts to optimize our performance, rather than undermine it. This framework is directly relevant to you, no matter what role you play within your organization: leader; manager; technical expert; or sales professional, and gaining clarity regarding how the pieces fit together can lead to higher levels of personal performance with a meaningful reduction in anxiety at work and beyond.

Dr. Dallaire will also present his proven ACT Model process, a simple methodology of self-critique and self-correction that is designed to help you influence and exercise control over your conscious mind's dominant thoughts. By shaping your conscious thoughts, you will gain the ability to selectively tap into the power of your unconscious mind. This is what is often referred to as "mental toughness".
