The Performance Code
The New Science of Achieving Under Pressure
Between potential and performance under pressure sits a variable most training ignores: physiological state. Drawing on Polyvagal Theory and years of coaching elite athletes and leaders, The Performance Code lays out the science of achieving from safety rather than stress — and introduces Autonomic Agility®, the skill of recognizing and guiding your state in real time.
Three chapters written within larger, multi-author volumes edited by other scholars — each a single contribution inside a broader collection, not a book of his own.
