Mastering crises
Mastering crises
Business and personal changes are inevitable. Especially challenging changes may lead to crises. Smaller and bigger crises are a part of every career and every life.
Crises are a tough test for leaders and their teams. Especially in crises the real character of a leader and the cohesion of the team emerges. Ideally it becomes an opportunity and can be used as a long-term opportunity for growth.
As leaders you and your team are familiar with situations like these:
-
You have to restructure your business area and have to let go or downgrade long-term faithful team members.
-
You regularly commute between several locations and notice how you lose the joy regarding your work and your private life suffers.
-
A personal crisis hits you - maybe a critical illness, divorce or death of a loved one and you notice a longer decline in your energy.
These examples show that business crises are often also personal crises – and vice versa. Good leadership is personal in the end. As a leader you have a strong interest that your team members manage personal and business crises well.
We support leaders during challenging business and personal changes. We accompany leaders through crises with personal solution-focused counselling. Our role is to identify the long-term opportunities hidden in the crisis together with our clients and to support them moving forward.
