We are living in unprecedented times. As leaders, teams, and individuals, we must deepen our understanding of the impact of the forces shaping our world.
The Crisis Curve provides a simple, broad framework to navigate stages of change. You can use it to help you and your team build a shared understanding of the impact of changes, systematically explore options, and align on bold choices.
Successfully navigating change means looking at business holistically, viewing strategy and tactics organizationally, and personally. Each lens provides insight into the needs of different aspects of work and the people who are part of it.
