public displays of daring

French translation: démonstrations publiques d'audace

English term or phrase: public displays of daring
Dans une liste de facteurs influant négativement sur une culture d'entreprise en matière de sécurité (norme britannique), l'entrée suivante (qui n'a aucun rapport avec celle d'avant et celle d'après) me laisse perplexe. Existe-t-il une notion de public displays of daring qui m'échapperait ? La ligne :

*situations that present opportunities for ego enhancement, for exemple, public displays of daring.*

Merci d'avance !
