Get closer and get involved. Do not hide in an office and hope for problems to be resolved.Get closer, get involved and resolve the conflict.
Do the right thing. Leaders know that when most people are moving in one direction, they have the opportunity to move against the flow and do the right thing.
Take action and mobilize your team. Having something to do helps people stay calm, stay focused and take action to improve the situation. Each day, make a list of the things you and the team have accomplished to improve the situation.
Over-communicate. During chaotic times, normal communication channels won’t be working as well as usual. People will be hungrier than ever for information. Give them an opportunity to provide input.
Provide hope. Most people want to follow a leader who has a positive vision that the crisis will be resolved and tomorrow will be even better than it was today.
