    Customer Support Is a Pressure Game: Lessons from High-Performance Sport | Sylvia Rizzo

    In this episode of Customer Support Mastery, I’m joined by Sylvia Rizzo, founder of Hof Marabunta, international coach, and performance and leadership strategist. Sylvia has spent more than two decades in high-performance equestrian sport, where pressure, mistakes, uncertainty, and split-second decisions are part of everyday life. Her experience in that world has shaped the way she thinks about leadership, performance, communication, and personal growth. In our conversation, we explore what pressure can teach us about ourselves and how we respond when things don't go according to plan. We talk about staying calm when emotions are high, making decisions when you don't have all the answers, and why having strong values and structure can matter more than simply trying to stay motivated. Sylvia also shares her perspective on mistakes - not as something to hide, but as opportunities to learn - and how leaders can create environments where people feel comfortable taking responsibility and improving. And of course, we bring these lessons back to customer support. Because when a customer is frustrated, something goes wrong, or a difficult decision needs to be made quickly, the way we respond can make just as much difference as the solution itself. A conversation about pressure, performance, mistakes, leadership, and what we can learn from high-performance sport when working with customers and teams. 🎙️ Customer Support Mastery Podcast Podcast website: Customer Support Mastery Podcast Spotify: Listen on Spotify YouTube: Watch on YouTube Connect with Sylvia RizzoWebsite: Hof Marabunta LinkedIn: Sylvia Rizzo on LinkedIn
