LEADERSHIP IN TIMES OF CRISIS
Abstrakt
Crisis (greek: krisis) means a turning point, a breakthrough; decisive moment; a
qualitative change of a system or in a system. In the theory of crisis, the system considered
is an organism, an institution, an organization, including the society1. In the
objective sense, it means „breaking” the existing system, consisting in changing its
structure or function, or both elements together. In the ontological sense, however,
a crisis is the cumulation of accumulated conflicts in various areas of social life.
Conflicts, however, are ubiquitous and embedded in the very structure of society2.
The term „crisis” has also a pragmatic meaning from a legal and organizational perspective.
It is usually assumed that the crisis does not have to pose a significant threat
to the security of a given entity in order to occur. However, it is important that it constitutes
a challenge to take remedial steps in a situation that constitutes a violation of
the basic values and interests of a given entity, generally recognized as worth being
protected and defended. Hence, new challenges constantly appear, forcing both theorethicians
and practitioners in the field of management to analyze existing situations,
search for new solutions and implement various innovative preventive and
stabilizing actions. This is where the role of leadership and the way it is performed in
an organization becomes visible, which is what this article is about.
