Managing a Crisis
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the Season 1 finale of The Change Agent, we’re diving into a high-stakes topic: Managing Through a Crisis. How do the best leaders handle pressure when everything is on the line? The answer lies in the 72-Hour Rule—a powerful strategy used in military, intelligence, and emergency response to make critical decisions and take decisive action in the first 72 hours of a crisis.
Join Eric as he breaks down:
✅ What defines a real crisis (and what doesn’t)
✅ How leaders in mission-critical environments handle rapid decision-making
✅ The OODA Loop, SWOT analysis, and Agile techniques for crisis management
✅ Real-world examples from cybersecurity, disaster response, and defense
✅ How YOU can apply the 72-Hour Rule to project management and leadership
Plus, we’re wrapping up Season 1 and sharing exciting updates for Season 2!
