There is a level of comfort knowing that you have the foundation of strong training to rely on in a crisis.”  “Be operationally and strategically focused. Understand the culture and where your organization is going so that you can make decisions even when the CEO or leaders are not around.”  “Don’t run into a fire with gasoline. A leader must be the cool head in the room.”  “In a crisis, a leader knows how to bring harmony to chaos.”
