by Emmanuel Gobillot
Crises are defining. Not only do they test our attitudes and attributes, they test the very systems that brought these to bear. They turn our structures and cultures upside down. Our responses to them define our future.But what makes a good leader at a time of crisis? Is it simply the willingness to ‘get things done’? Or to make the hard decisions that others won’t make? What skills does a leader need to use to lead effectively and what can we all learn as individuals from developing these same skills? Renowned leadership consultants Emmanuel Gobillot and Katherine Thomas, bestselling authors of Unleash Your Leader, have the answers. From being accurate and taking action to mastering rhetoric and simplicity via showing compassion and bringing hope, Crisis Leadership is your concise guide to being the best leader you can be when the situation most demands it. In a world that truly tests our ability to remain steady and decisive, Crisis Leadership shows you how to take positive action and the right steps not simply to preserve our past but to lead others to a brighter future.
