Leadership in times of COVID19: Containment is key – you are desperately needed!

When working in a leadership role you have a very clear task – you give guidance, set a frame, distribute work and monitor results. You work with and for human beings, you motivate, encourage and develop them, give them respect and appreciation – in short you take care of the people you work with.

 

In addition, each leader carries social responsibility for the organization. For your co-workers, leaders like you represent an important human social authority. Thus – during this difficult time – entrepreneurs, CEOs and all other leaders have to make a significant contribution to social stabilization. This is crucial since pandemics on a physical level lead to pandemics on a psychosocial level.
