You’re It by Leonard J Marcus, Eric J. Mcnulty, Joseph M. Henderson, Barry C. Dorn

In these turbulent times of rapid crisis and change, masterful leadership is vital. Key faculty members of the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative at Harvard University present a framework and practice method called Meta Leadership in which the leader seeks a bigger picture of the intricate complexity of the problems, opportunities, and solutions of a crisis in order to take decisive action. This holistic leadership view consists of three connected elements – the person or leader, the situation, and those the leader leads or the team. The meta leader learns how to use these interconnected elements successfully in a crisis situation.

With thought provoking “Questions for Journaling” at the end of chapters and numerous examples – mass shooting, data breach, pandemic, hurricane, bombing – to illustrate the effect of the practice, You're It is a relevant and timely crisis management book that will give you the tools to effectively lead in a crisis situation.

This eBook is also available from the Wheaton Public Library via Axis360.
