Abstrakt

The communication from leaders during a time of crisis significantly impacts how the crisis unfolds. Leaders also play a decisive role in fostering either virtuous or vicious dynamics when organizations are torn between competing demands
(Pradies et al., 2020; Smith, 2014). But never has it been more
pressing for organizational leaders to be mindful of what and
how they communicate than in the COVID-19 crisis. In many
cases, the current pandemic has surfaced the “invisible currents of paradox” (Quinn & Nujella, 2017, p. vii) operating within organizations, making it vital for leaders to craft messages that align people’s beliefs and actions and mobilize them towards a common goal.
