When Crisis Hits the Leader: Building Leadership That Can Carry On

Maureen (Mo) shares a personal story about her sister's illness to explore how leaders can build teams, systems, and margin so they can step away when life demands it. She explains how crisis reduces a leader's cognitive capacity and why key-person dependence is risky. Mo introduces the LEAP model (Lead, Empower, Align, Persevere) and offers practical steps, cross-training, documentation, distributed decision-making, and small self-care practices, plus a simple weekly challenge to identify and fix one leadership vulnerability. www.mcm-consultant.com
