Prepare for a predictable situation · D1.14

Prepare for a predictable pressure point

You know an upcoming task may be demanding.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. Identify the specific pressure point, such as limited time, an unclear role, or too many instructions.
2. Choose a practical preparation and a phrase you can use to ask for what you need.
3. Rehearse the first step and plan how to pause or obtain help if circumstances change.

An example

At a busy event, I can ask, 'Which task should I do first?' and keep the contact person's name available.

Reflect

Does the plan address the actual demand?

Next time

Afterward, revise the plan based on what happened.
