How to stay the course as a CEO in crises 

When the waves are high and everything is shaken, it is your principles that carry you as a leader - not plans and strategies. 


What is crucial in these moments? 


🔹 Communicate honestly and clearly, even without having all the answers. This creates trust for your team. 

🔹 Make quick decisions with foresight: Weigh up risks and find sustainable solutions. 

🔹 Teamwork counts in a crisis: involve your team and delegate responsibility. This strengthens cohesion. 

🔹 Finally, your attitude is important: stay true to yourself and your values - this gives you stability and credibility, especially in turbulent times.


What has sustained you as a leader in crises? And what would you do differently today?
