This study supported the hypothesis that there is a real distinction in a manager\u2019s performance depending on the tension level. Managers are considered less competent when operating under pressure compared to when operating in a normal mode (Phaneuf, and al., on 2004).<\/p>\n<p>Analys obtained similar results in 2006 during a study with 82 executives, demonstrating that personality explains performance better when an employee is under pressure than in a normal mode (Boudrias, et al., 2006).<\/p>\n<p>Based on the results of the 2004 study involving, a more elaborate study was conducted by Analys from July 2005 till February 2007 using the 360\u00ba evaluations of 1,674 managers evaluated by a total of 12,749 employees. The results demonstrated that all the managers\u2019 skills were perceived as weaker when evaluated on a stressful situation compared to a normal situation. Furthermore, the ability to manage interpersonal relations is the skill that dropped the most when the managers are under pressure.<\/p>\n<p>The results also put in evidence the proportion of the time a manager spends in normal versus pressure situations. The higher the managers\u2019 hierarchical position, the more time they evolve under pressure. 47% of the first level managers spend the majority of their time under pressure compared to 86% for high level managers.<\/p>\n<p>This information emphasizes the necessity of addressing an individual\u2019s behaviors in pressure mode and not only in normal situations. From evaluations to coaching, Analys can provide a more nuanced approach to their clients and help their development in a wider range of situations.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-999 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/analysleadership.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/GraphSitENG.jpg\" alt=\"GraphSitENG\" width=\"483\" height=\"177\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Boudrias, J-S, Phaneuf, J., Guertin, C. &amp; Forget, A.
