There is nothing quite like a crisis to test leadership. Like being in a war, a crisis tests limits because the outcome is rarely predictable. Leaders not only have to use all their wisdom to guide the organization through the storm, but also dig deep inside themselves to find the courage to keep going forward. Based on his research on both failed and successful leaders, George offers seven key strategies for weathering crises and emerging stronger than before.
