Reviews

`Modern organizational life seems dominated by crisis - BP and the Gulf Oil spill, TEPCO and the Japanese tsunami, the global financial meltdown. Therefore it is particularly timely to find a collection of articles in this Handbook that provides research guidance and practical insights on how leaders manage or mismanage in crisis situations. The focus on the crisis leader highlights what they do, and how they do it, while at the same time raising important questions to guide subsequent analysis.' -- Sydney Finkelstein, Dartmouth College, US and author of Why Smart Executives Fail
