Leading from the Top

Deliberate Calm: "Leadership in crisis" is different from managing "routine emergencies"!

Top 3 takeaways from the book: 1. Be calm, even when everything around you is telling you to freak out. It turns out that just a few seconds of that calm, of taking stock, can make a huge difference. 2. Learning how to change when change is hard. Deliberate calm is a personal tool kit to help leaders learn, change, and adapt when it’s the most important and hardest. 3. Be kind. You will make mistakes, and that is an important part of deliberate calm, as well. You have to make mistakes to learn.
