From Classroom to Workplace: How to Manage Cognitive Pressure/Distraction Amidst Audiences By: Deepa Singh At various points in life whether during school, college, or work we all encounter situations where we feel challenged or distracted and need to navigate them successfully. I faced such a situation while delivering a workshop. I realized, even though I knew my subject well, my explanation faltered in the presence of my father. Then, while writing this article, another incident revived in my mind, when I attended my daughter’s performance, and her teacher advised me not to stand in front of her because she might get distracted affecting her performance.  During these incidents, I was not aware of the reason how someone’s presence can wield such influence, especially in educational contexts.
