Tina Greenbaum
Founder, Mastery Under Pressure
Tina Greenbaum, M.Ed., LCSW, is the creator of Mastery Under Pressure, a neuroscience-informed approach to leadership clarity under stress. Her work integrates psychotherapy and sports psychology to address how pressure impacts performance, decision-making, and behavior in high-stakes environments.
TRUSTED ADVISORS
Trusted by CEOs, founders, and executive teams, we design tailored
engagements that build clarity, composure, and sustained performance in high-
pressure environments.
TEAMS
High-performing teams aren’t defined by harmony, but by how they handle pressure. Using evidence-based methodologies, we help teams surface friction, resolve breakdowns, and perform decisively when it matters most.
SPEAKING
Engaging keynotes and talks that challenge assumptions, sharpen thinking, and expand how leaders approach pressure, conflict, and performance.
Mastery Under Pressure
Doing more isn’t what separates elite performers.
Doing more is not what separates elite performers.
What separates them is how they respond when pressure peaks.
Consider an Olympic-level athlete competing with no margin for error. Their advantage isn’t willpower or intensity. It’s the ability to regulate their nervous system, stay perceptive, and execute with precision when everything is on the line.
Leadership at senior levels demands the same internal capacity.
Not just a strong mindset—but the ability to steady the body, quiet reactivity, and access clear thinking in real time.
Elite performers don’t wait for pressure to arrive before preparing for it.
They train their internal response in advance—so when the moment comes, clarity is already available.
Mastery Under Pressure develops this capacity—systematically, intentionally, and before the stakes are high.
Trusted Advisor and Mentoring
Sustained performance begins with clarity – not effort
ASSESS OBSTACLES
You already operate at a high level. Our advisory work surfaces the internal patterns, constraints, and pressure points that limit decision quality and performance—often those invisible from inside the role.
CREATE A PLAN
From this assessment, we establish clear objectives and a disciplined path forward. This becomes a shared operating agreement, reviewed consistently to ensure alignment, accountability, and progress.
MEASURE RESULTS
Change is measured where it matters most: in real moments under pressure. We work together until new responses become reliable and automatic—so situations that once triggered reactivity no longer disrupt clarity or execution.
Teams
Trust. Communicate. Achieve.
Elite teams, like elite athletes, do not rely on instinct when the stakes are high. They train for pressure—developing the capacity to remain composed, think clearly, and make sound decisions as complexity and consequence increase.
Many leadership teams are highly accomplished, yet lack the relational and decision-making skills required to function effectively under stress. When pressure rises, communication narrows, trust erodes, and performance suffers.
Using evidence-based methodologies, Tina works with teams to strengthen trust, improve communication, and elevate decision-making—so teams can collaborate with alignment, move faster, and sustain performance when it matters most.
TEDx Grand Junction
Befriending Your Inner Enemy.
In July 2022, Tina presented at TEDxGrandJunction on “Befriending Your Inner Enemy.”
Old habits run deep and they are really difficult to change if you don’t have a roadmap. In this talk, Tina offers an antidote to the frustrating process of navigating our inner world.
Speaking
Engage. Challenge. Expand Perspective.
In high-stakes environments, leaders don’t need more motivation—they need clearer ways of seeing. Effective speaking doesn’t energize temporarily; it reshapes how people understand pressure, conflict, and their internal responses in decisive moments.
Tina’s talks engage senior audiences by naming the unseen dynamics that shape performance under stress—how early patterns, nervous system responses, and unexamined assumptions influence leadership behavior, communication, and decision-making.
Designed for executive audiences, boards, and leadership teams, these engagements combine rigor, relevance, and real-world application—leaving leaders with frameworks they can recognize and use long after the event ends.
