“One lesson from the occurrence of crises in the last century is that they are here to stay. The other aspect brought to light by the novel corona virus 2019 (COVID-19) is that personal or organizational experience cannot be a form of inoculation from future events that may present more crises.”
Victor Manan Nyambala

Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr.
“In business and in all of life, a major part of effective crisis management is acknowledging the existence of the bad things that are happening. Once you have that acceptance, you can begin to strategize step by step how to manage the crisis and emerge from the crisis into a more favorable reality. But if you pretend like the bad things aren't happening, they magnify the crisis.”
Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr
