Crisis leadership

Focus

Think about leadership in normal situations versus leadership in crisis or disaster times. What may differ? Organizational culture, management and leadership address different aspects that are intertwined and evolutionary. Leadership and decision making go hand in hand.

“Leaders are men and women of character who work with competence “on farms” with “seed and soil” on the basis of natural principles and build those principles into the center of their lives, into their mission statements. The challenge is to be a light, not a judge; to be a model. Not a critic.”
Stephen Covey- Principle Centered Leadership
