All leaders are sooner or later confronted with the need to lead and manage their team or organisation during a crisis or emergency. The skills and competencies that are required to lead in these circumstances are much more demanding of the leader than normal everyday leadership. Leaders have to make decisions quickly while accepting significant risk in order to achieve a favourable outcome for their organisation, its members and clients, as well as the public it serves.
