unflappability

Unshakeable inner peace

Unflappability is the quality of remaining calm and composed under pressure.

Someone with unflappability doesn't get rattled by chaos, criticism, or crisis—they maintain their equilibrium when others might panic or lose their temper.

Her unflappability during the emergency saved lives.

The trait suggests both temperament and self-control.
