About this listen

A crisis can strike at any time. Is your organization ready to deal with it? Are you ready to lead your organization through those chaotic times.  In The Crisis Leader, the author, Gisli Olafsson brings decades of experiences in leading teams through some of the most difficult natural disasters of recent times and shares the lessons learnt with the reader. The Crisis Leader provides the reader with insight into how to better prepare yourself for dealing with crisis, how to prepare your team, how to make decisions under pressure, dealing with stress, how to focus on team morale, and focus on the tasks at hand, even when they are difficult. The book combines stories from the field of disaster response with the leadership principles that are essential to getting work done in crisis environments. The book describes how you can best build a team/organization that is ready to face crisis and what you as a leader need to do in order to prepare you for a disaster. The book discusses key aspects of being a leader during chaotic times, how decision making gets affected by lack of available information and how you ensure your team can cope with the additional stress of a crisis. This book is not only targeted at humanitarians and disaster managers, it contains important lessons that will be of interest to leaders at all levels, both within corporations and relief organizations. It is written in a light, educational manner, providing insights into some of the most chaotic environments on Earth, while at the same time clearly identifying the principles of leadership needed to survive a crisis. This book has been used as a textbook on Crisis Leadership at various universities around the world. Leadership Management Management & Leadership
