The Real Work of IT Leadership: Culture, AI, and Executive Influence with Trude Van Horn

How Elite Performers Stay Consistent Under Pressure | NFL Kicker Nick Folk on Mindset, Leadership, and Technology

What does it really take to perform under pressure — over and over again — at the highest level? Nick Folk is still doing it. Nearly two decades in the NFL. Multiple teams. Different systems. Different coaches. Different eras of the game. And somehow, he’s still one of the most reliable kickers in football. In this episode of The IT Masters Podcast, Nick sits down with Robert DeVita for a real conversation about performance — not the highlight reel, but what actually happens behind the scenes. They break down: *  How elite athletes manage pressure in high-stakes moments  *  The mindset required to stay consistent over a long career  *  How technology, film, and real-time data have changed preparation in the NFL  *  What Nick learned from leaders like Bill Belichick, Rex Ryan, and Mike Vrabel  *  Why team culture is the foundation of execution — in sports and business  *  The difference between talent, potential, and actual performance  This conversation goes beyond football. It’s about how high performers think. How leaders build trust. And how organizations create environments where people can consistently execute when it matters most. Whether you’re in IT, sales, leadership, or building a business — the lessons translate. Because at the end of the day, pressure shows up everywhere. And how you respond to it is what separates good from great. Listen now on The IT Masters Podcast.
