While pressure is openly acknowledged, employees consistently talk about colleagues stepping in, supporting one another, and helping navigate challenges. The strength here is not the absence of stress, but the presence of human support systems that help people cope and persist. Nurturing a culture of human support and peer resilience that drives collective coping, mutual encouragement and a strong sense of togetherness that helps employees navigate pressure and persist with confidence.
