Why Business Travel Is Destroying Your Performance And How to Fix It

from The Built For Pressure Podcast · host Will Foden

Most business leaders have a game plan until they start to travel. That is when performance quietly falls apart.In this ten-minute workshop, I break down the exact protocol we use inside Built For Pressure to help executives perform on the move, across multiple time zones, without leaving it to chance. You cannot run away from your physiology. But you can learn to work with it.What is covered in this video:How jet lag actually works and why it is not just tiredness, it is physiological compromise that directly affects your decision quality and emotional regulation.How to manage your sleep architecture before, during, and on arrival so you land ready to perform rather than two steps behind.How to keep training on the road and retain the adaptation you have built, so travel does not undo your progress.The exact checklist I use with the executives I work with, plus the one app I recommend to every client who travels internationally.Chapters:0:00 Introduction and why travel breaks most leaders1:20 What jet lag actually is and why it matters3:00 Sleep architecture and how travel disrupts it5:30 Strategies before you travel7:00 What to do on the flight8:30 On arrival protocol9:30 The app and checklist to stealLink to the checklist here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1htEH7G26RUNn6xW7kTrRdRPmBGfypnY2/view If you want to understand where travel is costing you performance, take the Capacity Index assessment at  https://bfp-capacity-index.netlify.app/. It will tell you exactly where your performance is leaking and what to address first.Built For Pressure is performance infrastructure for leaders operating under sustained pressure. Not coaching. Not wellness. The system behind the leader determines the performance of the leader.
